Hi everyone. I posted in another topic earlier today but haven't really formally introduced myself to the group yet. My name is Rob and I hale from Columbus, Ohio. I've been smoking pipes off and on for nearly 20 years. I enjoy aromatic blends such as MacBaren's Scottish Blend and Rattray's Hal O' The Wynd, and have a modest supply of probably 7 or 8 pipes that I rotate regularly. None of my pipes are what you would probably consider top-of-the-line (none costing more than $100 or so), but all of which have a special memory associated with it--Anniversary gift from wife, law school graduation gift, etc. I own a GBD, Jobey, Stanwell, Savinelli, Peterson and a Don Carlos, which was an estate pipe I purchased 15 years ago. My two favorites are the Stanwell (bent-freehand) and Don Carlos (straight-sandblast).
I'm looking forward to participating in the forum and learning a lot from you guys.

Welcome everyone! Now make this your homepage and pray that you can get some work done during the day. Looking forward to all your posts!
Ok, just jumping in here: Hi everyone, I've visited the site off and on for a while. I decided today I may as well say something. I'm at the very edge of learning pipe smoking, but I will get it down one of these days. Have a few Missouri Meerschaum on the way and I already have some pipe tobacco. It should be fun; I figure a cheap pipe or two for starters. Bob stopped in a forum I frequent yesterday or so. He left a link I used today and I found some pretty good reading. I guess that is it for a while until politics or unreasonable deals when it comes to tobacco get my hands busy.
Hi Raf66,
Your pipes may not be the most expensive, but you've got some nice names in there and what you say is a modest collection sounds more to me like one to be proud of!
Hi JnKC,
We both have the forum you mentioned in common. Keep an eye out for a couple other familiar names too.
Nice to see you here, I think you'll like it quite a bit.

Hey rs442 - I'm a newbie on this site also, but may I be the first to welcome you! This is a great place to share info and have a laugh. See you around!
Is it just me or is everyone else looking forward to seeing some pictures of Ron's pipe collection? Welcome to all the new members!
Hi Ron,
I'm sure I'm not the only one that'll be looking forward to some of the advice and input a pipe smoker of your experience has to say.
I'm with the Cigar Soldier, I'd love to see some pictures of the collection and the furniture it takes to hold all those pipes.
