The McGrane Method?

[baronsamedi]

Juni posted this just before the Frank Method debacle I mean, discussion. I'm not really sure what this method is called so I temporarily named it after the guy in the video. I have tried it a couple of times and it works pretty well for me. Just curious as to what others think.

It works really well actually, and is entertaining for anyone watching you do it.

 

[baronsamedi]

Haha, yeah. I still get entertained when I do it myself! I amuse pretty easily, though. ::

I'll Have to try it.

Love the video almost makes me wanna go buy a pete billiard for some reason.

 

[thekiltedchaplain]

That was cool, I'll have to give it a try soon.

From the 1980s decor to learning how to "tease" the tobacco with the lighter, that was just awesome. LOL I'm amused!

 

[digitalshave]

Awesome video, I will definitely have to try.
Also, I wish this man taught some of my college classes

I could listen to him for hours.

 

[marmal4de]

He sure has nervous hands.

 

[toehead]

Great Videos. Went to the website and watched them all.

 

[tslex]

Aw come on. That can't REALLY work. Can it?
What fun. Will have to give it a try.

i just tried loading some fresh rubbed flake using that method and it seems to be working

The method despite what you may think does work. I was very amused the first time i used it. I seem to have a problem keeping lit using this method though. Anyone else?? May just be that the tobacco i have tried it with was a little to wet.

 

[teamhavoc28]

Just tried the method it's a keeper just for the fun of it.

I did it with some Nat Sherman on a hot, humid day in my Meer and needed a relight toward the end (normal for me and that big bowl). Tried it last night with the MM Legend and some Cherry Bomb and smoked it right down. Eating out for lunch today so I'm going to try it again.

Wow I'm amazed. It works really well, and its almost like a magic trick. Nothing up my sleeve, palm full of tobacco, and bam. Pipe is loaded... Now whats that behind your ear young man.... A QUARTER !

 

[baronsamedi]

haha, lonestar! Love it! ::

 

[kcvet67]

Don't tease your tobacco, it's likely to get annoyed and bite. :rofl:

 

[nmbigfoot02]

I tried this the other day. While it works as advertised, I don't think I'll make it a regular method because of the mess.

 

[fullbent]

Everytime I tease my tobacco,it gets pissed! :laughat:
