Scrolling WAYS with my morning coffee and some Eccentric in my Anton & Co. This is a very good combination of pipe and tobacco, sometime you just hit harmony without trying. Have a great day!

:mad: I appear to have deleted all my images! Oh well, back to the drawing board.
PS: Looks like I completely deleted OneDrive, I'll have to track down a reinstall because who ever backs up their comp?

Not sure what your PC background is...

I use Clonezilla to make backup images and then save them on a portable USB drive. I’ve personally been using for over a decade the Western Digital portable drives, never had one fail. I only keep them 3-5 years though, I have three at the moment.

Clonezilla is easy to use, a small learning curve, but extremely worth it, free too.


I only do the ‘saveparts’ and ‘restoreparts’.

I only save the Partition Windows is installed on because if the OS gets screwed up, it’s better to format and reinstall, then format the OS partition, and then do ‘restoreparts’, picking the OS partition to restore to.

It might sound pretty complex and Geeky, it’s really easy after you’ve done it a few times.

First time going at it, took me all of 30 minutes to understand.

PM Anytime and I can walk you through it, or anyone else reading this. ;)

Gawith Hoggarth Cherry Cream Flake in a Peterson Wicklow 53, a dedicated cherromatic smoker. I thought I did well getting 10 oz. a few years back, but if I had known this tobacco was headed for the chopping block I would’ve gotten at least twice as much. Those crystals 😍

As a nice aside, @AroEnglish messaged me about this pipe a few days back, and chatting with him got me back into smoking my pipes for the first time in a long time. Cheers, sir!

I was just looking online yesterday to see if any of Baki’s pipes were out there for sale.

I occasionally keep looking, seeing your pipe, I need to start looking again today. LOL 😆

I should have jumped years ago before he retired and closed on Aliexpress, but Aliexpress was also a big reason I stayed away.
I wish the stem weren’t complete crap. Still haven’t found someone to make me a quality stem

Had a little KBV Mycroft in a Specialty silver mounted Pete. It's been one week without smoking anything. Bad flu. Fever. Chills. The whole 9. Now just my bones are aching from all the wheezing. Tested negative for Covid though so that's a plus! 😷
