Maybe a stupid question but...

[tomboo]

Is there a type of box that would fit in my pocket and could put 2 to 3 bowls of tobacco in? Im pretty sure there is but idk what the name of it is. I just dont like carrying around pouches and bulk bags anymore. Thanks.

turns out the stupidest part of this all is i said "maybe be"..... o well.

I like to use old tobacco tins; like the Dunhill Flake or Peterson UF tins..nice and small and can carry a good amount of tobacco for the day for me

A small 50g tin should work ok, I use them sometime ::

 

[pawpaw]

could always use an old Skoal or Cope tin
i kinda like my leather pouch

What's wrong with a small tin of MacBaren navy flake? The empty tins are handy, don't take a lot of room, and will hold enough tobacco for a days supply.

Camel Snuss tins close nice and tight and will hold roughly 7 grams of material

Not a stupid question.
The answer is yes.

They are wooden "UFO" shaped disks with a screw on lid.

YachtExplorer has several in his slide show.
Here's the link he provided a few days ago:

Thank you Arthur... CRS you know....

"Baccy flaps." Uncle that sounds like an old pipe smokers condition that may need to have a doctor's attention

 

[unclearthur]

Closely related to tire flaps.

Not a box per se, but BACCYFLAPS are kinda cool if not impossible to find.

*EDIT* Since it took me damn near an hour to find the website I saw them on a while ago, I see I'm kinda late to the game. Oh well.

Nice but getting about as common as chicken teeth.

I'd love to get one of those. They look rather sturdy for travel.

http://titepac.com/cart.php?action=all nice and inexpensive and they hold up well , there cigarette packs where the best , but they no longer make them .

 

[seanz]

[unclearthur]

I want the jigs to be able to turn the threads for making one. Last price I saw was more than I paid for the junker I am driving!LOL!
