    Questions About Dr. Grabow

    I just was thinning the herd and sent away a pipe that must by far be one of the best looking Grabows in existence. Yes a tall statement. But just wait for the pics. When the recipient gets his package I'm sure he will show it off. He collects Grabows and is somewhat a local expert in these...

    Would You Pay to Smoke Indoors?

    Cart ahead of the horse a bit but it can leave room for an assistant or such without the cramped quarters down the road... And buy a air purifier. Not just for the neighbors. It will keep it from becoming like an old boot you spend all day in. Congrats!

    Would You Pay to Smoke Indoors?

    Go bigger if you have the luxury. Let the increased hard costs motivate you to push a lil harder in the biz. Good for the soul to spread out a bit too.

    Friday Afternoon At the Ritz...

    You poor things... You just look miserable. Lol. Jk A great cause and glad you participated. Seems that lil turtle is a photo magnet for sneeking into ops. Looks like a great time to be had. So nice to see both of you involved and active together. Very nice.

    Watching the Watchers (Bidding Site Reference)

    And no one has asked but I would prefer to not give any links. Just thought to say that outright. Not intending on advertising with this thread. Just the comrade of other sellers and enjoying the flock circling for the kill. I'm just watching my screen and twisting my mustache. In my head I...

    Watching the Watchers (Bidding Site Reference)

    Not leaving any links or spamming. Just commenting on how much I enjoy watching the watchers. I have 30 auctions going, approx 1500 views combined, and almost 600 watchers...but only a handful of tiny token starting bids. The nature of the feeding frenzy is in last bit of the auction so I know...

    What Brand/Artisan is Most Represented in Your Collection?

    I thinned down and managed my rotation recently to more closely stay to what I enjoy smoking rather than enjoy owning. Strange sounding when I explain it like that but I'm sure everyone understands. I had one heck of a time sorting and whittling my group down. Turned out to have the batches. My...

    Peterson stem replacements - what fits?!

    I'm not trying to sound glib but plenty of us have lathes and can turn one for you. What's outside shank diameter its mating up to? I'm booked solidly through the season but if no one pops in then I will do it after the new year. Really hate leaving a piper in need but I just am buried at the...

    Sasieni Superb Six and Perfect Ten

    I only have two Sasieni pipes. Both great smokers. Both are early two dot models. Red/blue dots on vulcanite stems. Good feel in the hand. Great fit and finish that really extends to the improve the smoking experience. Like the way a good early Gasparini or Cellini does. They are two dot so a...

    Can You Believe, I'm Still Moving Leaves?

    I got caught fast this season. Business is good. I'm thankful and humbled by the volume and demand but it allows little time for much else. Yard is still covered in last load that finally fell. Almost daily now I drive up to the house in shame. I am paused for a coffee break. Briar caked in...

    The pockets above? Can't forget tampers, and of course rolled mini drying mats. Spare bic lighters etc..

    Briefcase - Important Business Items!

    Should be good for an afternoon... I have a smaller style old pelican case I did up for camping just to play it off nonchalantly around the campfire for reactions of my mates. Utterly beyond rediculous. But also great fun. Nice job.

    Photographing Pipes

    I left, then had to cone back to this thread. Many of us sift and read and refrain from commenting in threads because we don't have anything really constructive to contribute. But instead of just reading and moving on as usual it got me thinking. To come back and take pause. To say thanks for...

    Lighest Pipe in Your Stable (By Weight)

    Yeah, bingo Kashmir. I notice my love affair for the look of a 1/4 bent custom gives way to my lighter billiards when I scrutinize who's doing the work on my daily duty. Nothin better than a thick and stout Freehand or a prided custom around the mantle with two hours worth of something rich and...

    Sadness In The Household

    Sad news. But I'm glad you shared it. A toast with coffee and pirate cake to neither being forgotten. Condolences, Sir.

    Showing That Danish Pride

    Jeaaaaaaa-loous! Very nice. And best of all she looks like a Lefty. That's a beauty.

    Lighest Pipe in Your Stable (By Weight)

    I have been rigorously trying to whittle down my herd. It's completely overgrown. I got down to a rotation of 36, then an auxiliary 24 split between the oddball shaped danish, meer, or figural etc. It's been agony to get this far. And I'm going to force another 15 out... Or decide on another 36...
