Just wanted to drop in and say Hi! I’ve just started pipe smoking about 3 ish weeks ago!
A lot of you have already been helpful with my first post on the repair thread.
Thank you!
Pipe collecting is addicting I’m finding.
I’ve got a Savenelli churchwarden 601, a Peterson Sherlock Holmes Original (the one I stressed out about) and I just ordered an amazing looking LoTR inspired church warden made from pear wood from Ukraine.
I will say, that the breathing method / bellows method is a game changer. Especially for someone who tends to smoke too fast and too hot. Learning to slow down has been rough. But, I didn’t know it wasn’t good to smoke to
The bottom of the bowl?
Kinda confused on what to do there. Seems like you’d get a lot of doddle you’d end up with
Have a great day!

Great job trying to smoke slow! Yes smoking to the bottom maybe lead to charring, especially where the draft hole enters the bowl.
