Favorite Accessories

[mikeysmokes]

If ya'll don't mind sharing, what are some of your favorite tobacco related accessories? I'm looking to get a leather tray/tobacco mat, but not looking to spend too much. I wouldn't be opposed to wood either and I've seen several make an appearance on the Now Smoking thread. If you can link to the accessory as well, all the better! Thank you, gentlemen!

Sedercraft’s Pipe Valet is solid.

I really enjoy my tobacco caddy.

It has a spot to prepare tobacco with a space to empty it out, an indentation for a small Mason jar of tobacco, another for my pipe cleaners, and a slot to hold up a phone or tablet while I read or jar tobacco.

I think I have been using same paper paper for over two years. They really don't worn out. I do have a leather mat, but paper plate cleans off easy by the tapping against trash can. When something's not broken, why get new stuff?

This is my favorite accessory. Not expensive, but just adds a touch of class to pipe cleaners.

They are currently OOS, but they usually run around $12.00. I have a couple of them.

A cheap paper plate is definitely one of my favorite accessories. But then I don't generally have a lot of class.

I've thought pipe cleaner holders was one of the most useless accessories until I started keeping some in my jacket with my lighter and pipe tool. They are mostly mangled and a pain to use now that they're not straight. I'll probably be ordering one of these soon.

I thought the same until I got one. They keep everything nice and neat.

Like I said, I have a few and you can just throw one in your car, desk, etc. and always have clean, straight cleaners at your fingertips.

Roll-up pouch and a tamper, as for those pipe cleaner sleeves, indeed they are very practical,

Bombay Company Valet ...turned into pipe stand and 3 bay drying tray ... purchased at Goodwill for $3.00. Works for me.

One or more of these is always nearby and the coffee filter is eligible for social security benefits by now, lol. I’m pretty sure I got my .07 cents worth out of it.

This bowl has been a God Send. I now load my pipe and break up flakes without the tobacco going all over the desk top. I can pour the unused tobacco back into the jar with no mess. Best accessory I ever bought. Purchased at Smoking Pipes https://www.smokingpipes.com/accessories/ashtrays/moreinfo.cfm?product_id=71575

I love re-purposed items like that -- displays those 3 pipe nicely!

I haven’t purchased 1 yet but these caught my eye. I’ve gotten a pipe from this seller & can confirm he’s top notch. He does restoration too.

Like @verporchting I also use a well-worn paper coffee filter for drying the current bowl of tobacco I'm filling. My favorite other more "conventional" accessories are a Rodgers of Sheffield pipe tool and a vintage 1950's Nimrod Commander pipe lighter. Those latter two make things so convenient and are the best gadgets I ever bought.

I scoop my ash into a rectangular red condiment dish I bought at Walmart and put spent matches in a tea cup made without a handle and bought at Seaboard, a town in North Carolina with many artisan potters with work for sale. When I smoke, I usually grab a pipe, a blend, a pipe nail, a pipe cleaner, and a little metal match case with a cardboard match box inside that my wife bought me, just nifty and pleasing, but it only fits wood matches sold for weddings etc. in plain white boxes. The regular match boxes, like Diamond, are slightly too large, like a 16th of an inch.

I got myself an 8 DECO tamper tamper, which I'm finding to be an excellent tool.

If it works, it works, hard to argue with that. Since I smoke most days, I tend to leave out what I'm currently using for this task. Since I'm doing so, I prefer to have something that's as much pleasant to look at as is functional.

I have the clear/brown glass version of this I use for my ashtray!
