    Unknown Accessory Help

    I was looking for some help identifying this item. It was in a lot of Dunhills, has the white dot on top of the stem and there's a draft hole on the side of the chamber thing. Any ideas? unknown

    Another Broken Heart

    I was going to say broken pipe, but I didn't want anyone to think that someone had passed. https://www.dropbox.com/s/nn0f9fniy6etm8h/2013-01-06%2019.05.38.jpg Dropped it and it cracked. I tried taking the stem out but the whole thing separated. This is/was my Peterson Rocky Donegal 87. I have...

    Pipe Trading?

    For the life of me I can't recall seeing any pipe trades here. Are they permitted? I couldn't find the answer anywhere.

    I'm going to be in the area for that week. Any smokers in the area up for a drink and smoke? It'd be great to meet some members from here.

    Selling on Ebay

    Quick question to you Ebay sellers. My wife sold some stuff on Ebay and the status is that their payments status is completed but funds not yet available. What the heck does that mean?

    Was driving back from the beach and spotted this in the San Marco area of Jacksonville, Fl: I didn't get a chance to go in, but it sure caught my eye.

    I Want One Like This

    I had posted this picture before trying to ID it, but now I want to find one like it. I have scoured the webs but can't find one like it. Does anyone know where I can get one similar?

    Viva Las Vegas!

    Heading to Vegas with the wife in a couple of weeks and wanted to know of any shops I might "need" to stop into while I'm there. I know there is vegas smokes off the strip, but I am looking more for places in the casinos/hotels. I'll be at the MGM Grand with no car if that helps.

    Craftsman Buffing Set

    I just bought this buffing set at Sears to clean up my pipes and stems. My question is which of the compunds should I use for stems and bowls? http://community.craftsman.com/Craftsman-Buffing-Wheel-and-Compound-Set-reviews?b=1

    Another "What Is It?"

    A person in my office brought in a bunch of his father's pipes that were last smoked in the '60s. I could tell that the majority were Yello Bole Century Models but 2 I can't figure out. It says Made in Italy on the shank and SQUIRE on the stem. It also has a stinger. The second one I love...

    Ready Rubbed?

    I'm curious about this nomenclature. I recently opened my tin of Rattrays Marking Flake and it said ready rubbed, but when I opened it I saw huge sheets folded. It was sorta loose but not rubbed from what I understand it to be. Is this normal?

    White Star Made in Israel?

    I can't identify this pipe. It was my friend's grandfather's and I was curious about it. I tried looking in the pipe logos, but nothing matched. Any help would be appreciated. The last picture (if readable) is a stamp that just reads ISRAEL.

    New Acquisitions

    Stopped into an antique store the other day and picked up a couple things. One is a Barling Londoner 411T. I know it's post-transition, but don't know the date. The other 2 are a little mystery. I think one is a Kaywoodie, but the other will never be know since it looks unfinished. All I need to...

    What was your worst tasting tobacco?

    Disclaimer...I am a newb and have only had a couple of aromatics in my bowl. I've been puffing on some Captain Black White and some Borkum Riff with a couple pinches of cherry, both with moderate success and taste. Last night, however, I tried my local B&M's Dunhill 965 mixture. It smelled good...

    How long till burn out

    I only have one pipe at the moment. It's a cheap basket pipe and I smoke it everyday 1-3 times. How long will it last me doing this? I don't have much $$$ for new/new to me pipes yet, but don't want to destroy the one I have. Are there any precautions I can take until I have enough to purchase a...

    Aromatic or not

    As a newb to pipe smoking and tobaccos, I keep reading about having a pipe for aromatics and one for non-aromatic. My question is (and please forgive me), what makes a blend an aromatic? Is it the type of tobacco? Is it the additives? Right now I'm smoking Captain Black White but want to explore...
