    Weaver Commission 2016

    Question About Pipemakers Emporium

    Yes, except it doesn't have a male end. It's just flush metal. I'm just curious to see if I was supposed to purchase something extra, or if I am missing a piece... Does anyone remember how to post a pic?

    Question About Pipemakers Emporium

    Hey guys! I've started making pipes here recently (some successes and some complete steamers) and just bought a tenon cutting tool from PME with some lucite. Their customer service has been amazing! But I was curious if you guys have purchased the tenon cutter, and what it's supposed to come...

    Help With Stain

    Jones: thanks! I've got another one here ready to stain, I'll give that a go. I have heard that USMC is a little harder to use than the rest of the fiebings selection. Oh well, live and learn! Thanks to all for your help!

    Big Year For Comic Movies!

    So there's Deadpool, Batman vs Superman, Captain America: Civil War, Suicide Squad, X-men Apocalypse, X-men Gambit, Sinister Six (which will suck). And don't forget on Netflix we get Daredevil season 2 (my favorite, obviously) and Luke Cage season 1. My inner nerd tingles! Discuss, discuss!

    What President Gerald Ford Smoked.

    So this is off the beaten path here, but he was a president and I feel like bragging. My area of history is from start of WW1 to the end of the Cold War, with an emphasis on the years in between WW1 and WW2. I took a class from a well respect professor at my university who was a curator at the...

    Help With Stain

    Dadgy: excellent news! I was worried I had made a mistake. The brush idea makes perfect sense, I'm embarrassed I didn't think of it on my own.... I will post pics when finished.

    Help With Stain

    I've also noticed when I sand the rusticated parts, even with fin grain like 600, it doesn't just strip the dye, it really ruins the rustication as well. Any suggestions? I meant to include this in the original question, but alas, I am a dunce...

    Help With Stain

    Ember: yessir I have. It appears to be lessening as I go, so that's a good sign. I hand rubbed it with a towel for a bit, and eventually it started to clear! Is it possible I used too much in the initial go? Valentine: valid point! What brands do you use? Thanks fellas

    Do you think pipe smoking is becoming popular again?

    Our shop has been running thru product like crazy, so perhaps. But the biggest indicator to me is I've started seeing them on campus... Maybe there's hope!
