    TAD Purchases

    Stopped by a B&M while traveling and look what I found... Can't wait to try the Pelican. The number on the bottom of the tin is 321073. Any idea how old it is?

    Man Caves

    Hey gtclark, That sir, is one hell of a smoking room! I like the secretary desk and built in book shelves. Everything looks nice dark and smoky. PS - Best of all... no TV. Just quiet contemplation and maybe a good book or album.

    Another TAD attack!

    I love my Postman when he brings treats like this... Gaslight I've had one bowl so far. It's not what I expected. We are still getting aquinted and I'll follow up later. I did not rub it out. I cut off a small stack/slice and pushed it in a narrow bowl. Very peppery throughout. Fun to...

    Odor Free Pipe Rack/Case

    Love the cabinet and suggestion. I'm working on a custom pipe cabinet build (inspired by 2 cousins). It will be a china hutch conversion. Stay tuned.

    Polinski PAD

    Thought I'd chime in with my latest addition... a Tadeusz Poliński from House of Pipe on eBay. So far, the flakes are smoldering sweetly in the bowl. Great draw and the construction is first class. The air hole through the shank is centered and clean. The mortise and stem fit perfectly. The...

    I'm a Zulu Guy

    Agreed, the Zulu shape is an eye catcher. The Rad is gorgeous, but expensive. I have a "Poker" fetish right now, but a Zulu purchase is not far off.

    Odor Free Pipe Rack/Case

    Quick apology. I'm feeling a little guilty for asking more questions than giving answers on our forum. Just short on knowledge, but learning every day. Thanks for humoring me. I was wondering if any of you are in a "non smoking" house, but display your pipes indoors? My wife is cool with me...

    What Else Do You Collect?

    I used to collect Corgi diecast models 1:50... anything military (planes, tanks, jeeps etc). My favorite was their WWII series. Very well done. I always dreamed of having a room or large enough office to set up a diorama and display cabinet for my collection. Then, a buddy of mine got me...

    Good Site

    Confused... can you buy pipes, but not tobacco? Or, is there just much higher taxes/charges for tobacco?

    I've got a "Crush" on English Tobacco

    I've been smoking pipes for several months now and have really only enjoyed VAs and AROs. Well, something is afoot with my palette. It started when I opened my first tin of Frogmorton. I opened the tin and loaded a pipe with the fresh/moist tobacco and lit it up. I didn't care for it, set...

    Hiked 25 Miles of the Appalachian Trail! (Pics)

    Wow, awesome trip! There's nothing better than getting away with a good buddy, a couple of pipes and wandering the AT in WNC.

    Great Deal on a Couple of Savinellis

    Cup O Joes has a great deal on some Savinellis. I bought two from their economy line... $39.99 each. Only $10 to $15 more than a basket pipe. They are filtered (6mm) and so far, smoke great.

    My God, Your Breath!

    Has anyone ever tried Biotene? It's kind of pricey ($12-$15) I bought bought a small bottle and it is seems more gentle than the generic Listerine I get at Wally World. Don't know if it's worth the extra $ though.
