    Show Off Your GBD Pipes (and 2nds)

    Here's a recent GBD restoration, a 529 Prehistoric Bent Billiard. I was surprised to see it passes a thin cleaner!

    I missed this notification. What, that's an epic GBD. Were those made by Horry Jameson?

    GBD Nomenclature

    I don't think that I have seen a GBD Colossus that did not have a shape number. But you are right, there is very little info on the web about the oversize models.

    Any Bicyclists Out There?

    I had a great shop up in MD and found a great shop down here (The Bike Path, Mandaville). My rear derailleur wouldn't shift right a few Saturdays ago. I kept adjusting it, to no avail. I called them - can they adjust it? Sure, bring it over. 15 minutes later, they find the cable nearly...

    Royal Comoy Kruger Restored

    I just finished the Royal Comoy shape 17. Full restoration details are on the Reborn Pipes blog. It was in good condition, so a relatively easy restoration. I was surprised to discover that it passes a thin cleaner...

    Interesting Completed Ebay Auctions - British Pipes

    Sure do! These days, it would be foolish to not price Peterson's on the upper end, particularly on a rarity like the 9BC. Good luck!

    Any Bicyclists Out There?

    I rode with a club in the 1990's (Cannondale road bike), they swtiched to a then new, mountain bike for trail use in Western MD. Bought a motorcycle in 2001 and the bike got relegated to occasional beach/vacation use. I started riding again during Covid. Tried a hybrid, my brother said I...

    NHL Playoffs... Who's Watching and Who You Got?

    Man, the Hurricanes OWNED the Caps. they had about 80% of puck time in the offensive zone. The Canes outshot the Caps 33-14. Missed passes everywhere, we couldn't get past the blue line. Ovechkin gets the puck taken from him every time. One shot on goal. Logan Thompson kept us in the...

    This is a BIN. We know Peterson 9BC's were made during the Republic era, but this is the only one that I've seen stamped that way. I've also not seen the Straight Grain finish on a 9BC. Kind of a high price, we'll see how long it lasts. (with Peterson's these days, who knows the upper limits)...

    NHL Playoffs... Who's Watching and Who You Got?

    The Canes always play the Caps tough, it's going to be a challenging series for Washington. Logan Thompson has been injured three times in the past month. If he stays healthy, we have a shot, if not, we're toast (back-up Charlie Lingdgren just can't win a series).

    I thought this was a werewolf story, but it's turning into more of a sci-fi horror. I'm not sure on this one yet.
