Hello all,
I'm sure these questions have been answered to some degree, but I tend to always have follow-up questions, so I figured I'd start at the beginning.
I briefly smoked a pipe about 10 years ago, but never developed the habit, so I don't really know HOW to smoke a pipe. For example: it seems very difficult to keep the bowl lit. Is this normal, or am I doing something wrong? It goes out fast - like, as soon as I stop puffing.
Does the bowl have to be filled above the draw hole in order to work? If the tobacco is below that hole does it prevent the proper air circulation?
I currently have one pipe, but have ordered 2 more - all inexpensive at this point. Will different shaped pipes give different smoking experiences? What I mean is, some pipes are very curved while others are very straight (basically a bowl on top of a stem). I'm thinking Sherlock Holmes vs Norman Rockwell, LOL.
I'm sure I have other questions, but that's all for now.
Thanks
