Nice!!
@tfdickson is that one of those urology strainers, used to catch stones in the bottom shelf of the first pic? I have one in each bathroom, but I never thought to put one in my tobacco cellar.

Can’t be too careful, right?
It‘s just a funnel sized for mason jars. I tend to jar in 3lb batches (usually a flat of 1/2 pint jars) and it makes the process much easier.
(Looks around.)
Nope. Nothing wrong here.

You mean "normal" like would that be a normal amount of tobacco for a forum member to order in a single monthly shipment? Probably so.
I go back and forth between being embarrassed of my 35-40 pound cellar and being greatful that I have it. Right now I'm thoroughly enjoying a bowl of Balkan Blue that never could have happened if I hadn't stashed some away when it was available. I doubt that any of us will ultimately regret having a good supply of tobacco as long as there weren't too many financial sacrifices made in accumulating it. It's only when non smokers (every single person I know) see it and look at me like I'm crazy that I wonder about my sanity.
Good point. Also now I am starting to worry about a ban on internet sales .. our B&M has a pretty abysmal selection. I guess in my mind I envision thinking of a style or type of tobacco I want to smoke and always just having it on hand and available... looking like a 1950s dad or a professor in a smoking jacket in a library of tobaccos. Though with all the options out there this is unrealistic.
I am honestly not sure how many pounds I have in jars but maybe 20-30? Maybe more? It’s hard to tell because I have a ton of small jars from when I opened tins. I should probably smoke through some of those before I open anymore tins.
The possible Internet ban is the main reason I've decided to finish my tobacco purchasing asap. Our B&M's are the same as yours. Their pipe tobacco selection is almost non-existent unless you don't mind trying their own blends.
I also have not figured out how many pounds I have, but would guess about 50. I could be way off though.
