    Chris Askwith's Devil Anse Pipe

    Here's Chris Askwith's "Devil Anse" Hatefield's pipe interpretation. I liked it so much I had to buy it. It's going to be a great little pipe to smoke while doing other things like driving or even feuding.

    Cellaring

    With all the talk about tobacco bans, I suspect there will be a lot of people Cellaring a lot more tobacco. I know I'm planning to start with around 15-20 pounds then see from there, I'll be starting with aromatics that I like seeing as they seem to be the first target. What's the best storage...

    The Scream

    Is just me, when I look at good birdseye on a pipe I see Edvard Munch's The Scream. I always see the screaming face.

    Antique Flea Market

    A friend of mine told me that he saw a bunch of pipes there so I had to check it out. Boy people need a dose of reality, a bunch of trash that wasn't even worth refurbishment. holes in stems, even right through bowls, cracked stems yet they were asking $10-$30 a piece, they weren't even big...

    Follow on to How Many Bowls per Day

    For you guys smoking more than two bowls a day do you smoke them in the same pipe each day? rotate pipes through out the day? how often do you smoke out of the same pipe? I try to give my pipes a rest and only smoke one bowl a day out of each (occasionally 2) and give them 3-5 days of rest or more.

    Squadron Leader

    Wow, had my first bowl of Samuel Gawith's Squadron Leader. All I can say is wow I really like it, being new and basically having only smoked aromatics in the past this was a new departure for me. When I first opened it can't say I was blown away by the tin note, smelled kind of like vinegar...

    My latest acquisition a Savinelli Oscar Tiger 673, a nice Rhodesian. I enjoyed it with a nice MacBaren Vanilla Creme Flake. I really like this pipe, it smokes great and is comfortable in the hand. This one is going to get a lot of use.

    Canadian Get Togethers

    Do you guys ever get together specifically in the GTA, Southern Ontario area. I know the laws suck and there aren't really many public places that we could meet and smoke but just wondering if there have been any?

    Canadians and mail order tobacco from the US

    New to all this stuff and just wondering what the experiences are that other Canadians have with ordering tobacco from the States. Have you found there is a certain amount that customs doesn't seem to bother with, like 2, 4 or ten tins? What sort of values have you been charged?
