Only the good stuff......years of dog dander and open widows!I've heard great things about the benefits of 1/2" dust and was thinking of adding it to my pipes, as well. In your considered opinion, is imported dust better or will domestic dust serve just as well???
Random find at HomeGoods. Used to hang pipe bags from it as well. Best $9 I've spent in a long time!
Wow..... very creative. I wonder if I bought something like this if my wife would let me put it up in the foyer of the house?? I'm betting she would........ NOT!!
I'm really impressed at the level of creativity in the pipe smoking world.
I like it, seriously. Easy way to display or store a good number of pipes & it protects the exterior finish of the pipes.
Looks good. You can grab a pipe to smoke and then grab a Phillips screwdriver to use the handle as a tamper.
I use a tackle box for my daily use...it holds around a dozen pipes, all my accessories and a few current tobaccos in my immediate rotation. Easy to move, use, and pack away.
My cellar stash is kept in banker boxes in the basement.

No! Philips heads are the ones you don't want to use. That baby food jar full of nails, though...
I love this! I have been searching for something like this for a while now. What I believe is called a butler's hutch. Glass cabinet up top for my beer and liquor glassware, a flat bar area for all my booze and storage below. I'll have to see how pipe accoutrements will play into this.
Excellent system for always buying new pipes without the wife being able to object: "dear, another pipe fell and broke..."
Helps protect the vulcanite of the stems from yellowing
I have been using the term "China cabinet" for so many years, I almost forgot dear Mom referred to this same piece of furniture as a "hutch". Thanks for bringing back fond memories of our old hutch, though it contained neither booze nor pipes.
A hutch was always what we had in my parents' home as well. I think the difference is that a "China Cabinet" does not have the open area below the doors. If you google "Butler's Hutch" you will more often than not see that open shelf are between the bottom drawers and the upper cabinets.
This is in a cabinet that is closed 99.999% of the time.
That may tell you how long its been sinse I cleaned the cabinet.
I didn't open it once in seven years.
Where did all the dust come from??

Pipe fairies will take up permanant residence in pipes which they find attractive and welcoming.You know they are present when an old pipe begins to smoke exceptionally well.
They are particularly fond of Petersons due to its accommodating reservoir.
Found a straight seven pipe Decatur rack and made a modest offer that was accepted. Decided to hang it between desk and open blend cabinet (rather than atop cabinet) to keep some of my more often used pipes handy.
Now I’ve got my Kaywoodies and my uncased meer in the carousel, and my Petes and others aren’t just laying about.
Dad’s collection (that got me started in this madness a year and a half ago) now lives on the top shelf of the bookshelf nearby.
Y’all are a bad influence…

There now........ Don't you feel a lot better about yourself now that you've done this???
Side by sides are my all time favorite furniture form. That's a good use of one!
