    L.E.D. Light effects on pipe stems?

    Al, I have the same curio but mine has glass shelves. The LED lights are stdips glued to the inside of the door frame and run on a dimmer at the lowest setting. The following link is to the light strips...

    L.E.D. Light effects on pipe stems?

    We know that direct natural sunlight on non acrylic pipe stems will lead to quick oxidation damage and fading (don't store your pipes near a sunny window) but what about the effects of LED lighting in a cabinet? I have a nice little rotating 9 slot rack of pipes my wife wants to put in the...

    Who Makes The White Spot Pipes?

    We are all pretty familiar with Dunhill history, and most of it is easily found on the web. I'm not, however, easily finding any facts about the current White Spot pipe production, and wondered if anyone here actually knows the facts. Please inform/correct me on the facts. Dunhill divested...

    Trouble With P&C Site (02/18/2017)

    I placed an order 5 days ago, still no confirmation of processing or shipment. I'm hearing on other forums and facebook groups that people have ordered as far back as the 19th and still have no action taken on their orders. All I know is this - You've known about your problems for some time...

    UHF Radio Question

    What frequency are you using? When you are talking directly between two radios it is called simplex communication and both radios transmit and receive on the same frequency with no offset. When you are communicating through a repeater the radios will receive on one frequency but transmit on an...

    What is a Balkan Blend?

    After reading that article, it seems that the terms English and Balkan have morphed into descriptive terms defining flavor profiles of blends rather than being definitions of the components in the blends, and that these definitions have evolved via Vox Populi and not by any academic means. If...

    Bombay Court: Now. . . and Then

    Thanks for posting that, this is a blend I'm going to have to revisit as it's been several years and I really don't remember it. I'm finding now, a decade into this hobby, that McClelland really is a fabulous blender of these various oriental/English/Balkan blends because most of them do a...

    Italian Stanwell

    I have a couple of Italian Stanwells, a smooth shape 32 straight bulldog and a sandblasted shape 139 bent billiard. Both pipes are drilled spot on, smoke wonderfully, and look great. I can't tell any difference between these and the almost dozen Danish Stanwells I own. The new Stanwell...

    Help Me! Which Stanwell?

    I have both the featherweight 243 and the Nanna Acorn, both sandblast.. The 243 has a very small bowl, I use it for stronger tobaccos. The Nanna Acorn is very light weight, has a decent capacity, and the fit and finish is excellent. Both pipes are excellent pipes and both smoke very well. I...

    Scotch Drinkers in the House?

    I wish I could get Bruichladdich's Laddie Ten here. For some reason the local stores (northern California) stock only Bruichladdich Rocks (which sucks) and not any of the other Bruichladdich offerings. They said The Laddie 10 would be a special order, price was ridiculously high. More than 50%...
