    Actually just the lacquer top coat was effected causing a dulling of the finish. Still trying to figure out how to send photos.

    How to Repair Damaged Finish?

    Some advise on finish repair. Recently got some Clean and Cure in contact with the finish of my Sav Bing and ate away at it. Can this be repaired by hand without a buffing set up. Can a buffing compound bring back the shine or are there other options without resorting to refinishing?

    Time for a clay pipe.

    Kids are not a problem, they're old enough to be smoking what ever it is they choose, but the work truck could be a dangerous place for something fragile.

    New Study Aims to Reduce Pipe-Smoking in the U.K.

    Pipe smoking , for me, is more than worrying about the statistics. Hell, you can walk outside and get hit by a bus! Life is too short, there seems to be too many things not to enjoy. Well as for me I love this hobby ,no this lifestyle,the collecting, the tobaccos,the journey!
