Ideas For Pipe Carrying Bags

[onepyrotec]

Sometimes I work out of town for months on end. When I do, I use a range bag from BIG-5. The pistol case will hold a dozen or more pipes depending if I stuff it with churchwardens or not. The main bag compartment holds 8 half pint jars of tobacco so I can have a wide variety to pick from 8). The various zippered pouches holds cleaners, matches, lighters, tampers, & whatever else I need to take along that I probably won't use.

@dochudson now that's pretty awesome. I'm going to have to look into that.
Any pictures of how you pack your bag, pipes in there fully loaded etc?

I am having trouble finding a carrying bag for my pipes now as well. I have a nice leather one that holds two pipes plus all the accessories and tobacco nicely, but there is a hitch. The bag is designed for straight pipes, and since I received my three very nice estate Oom Paul style pipes, I don't smoke my straight pipes anymore so I am once again bagless unless I ignore my desires for the bent pipes and go back to smoking straight pipes when on the road.
Has anyone seen a pipe accessory bag that will hold two bent pipes, accessories, tobacco, etc. all in one place?

I found this not long ago. Its made a company called Condor. $22 CDN, but I've seen them on various US sites for about $15

Search for bank zipper bag, or shaving kit bag.

I have two of these hard-shell, foam glass-pipe cases for air travel. Each holds 5 pipes, straight or bent.

Ok, I spoke with a gentleman in Turkey today that makes a very nice quality roll up style pipe bag that is sold on Amazon currently and explained my difficulties in finding a bag that will fit the Oom Paul shaped pipes.
He is customizing his design so that the new version will hold 2 Oom Paul shaped pipes instead of the normal 4 straight pipes. What is even better is he will be offering this new style on Amazon along with the straight pipe version so that other bent pipe smokers will have the option of having a travel pipe bag also.
It should take about a week for him to create it and get it shipped out to me. I will let everyone know how it works when it arrives.

This new vendor was mentioned in the last issue of The Pipe Collector. They have some good looking bags, made by an Amish craftsman. Very reasonable prices, compared to Smokin Holsters, and they appear to be of a similar quality.
