Classic Flake in the Sven large pot made out of wood with the silver colored metal band and black part you put in your mouth while watching Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Maaro maaro sooar ko chamdi nocho pee lo khoon! Kali ma!

 

[LeafErikson]

You’re giving up too easy. Stick a chalk pad or birds nest in the chamber.

Life’s too short to smoke gurglers

C&D Innsmouth. It’s been interesting to smoke this and Miskatonic because they have the same tobaccos but in different proportions.

Jeremy Reeves mentioned this and how could I not compare the two. View attachment 194757

My wife and I love doing puzzles. More so in the winter months.
Here’s the one we’re working on now. Maybe we need a puzzle Thread?

If your truly going to throw it away, I‘d be willing to take into my Pipe Rescue Sanctuary Program!

It’s a work day because the reports don’t write themselves. Bosun Plug in a Peterson Patent Bulldog with Ryan Alden Stem

 

[Fralphog]

Going to have John Middleton Co. Carter Hall in a French All Wood Fayard EXTRA Apple (with metal stinger in the stem)—both the stummel and stem might be Beechwood. I’m guessing this might be from the ’50s or ’60s.

I love the simple, rugged look of this pipe. How easy is it to keep that stem clean?

Soothing the belly with some Morley's Best in the Kaywoodie after the Sunday big breakfast of bacon eggs toast and deer scrapple! More coffee!View attachment 194805

I like your pipe holder! Did you make it? I have leather tools- you may have inspired a project.
What fly is painted on the work surface? Hmm, Adams?

Grousemoor in a Comoys Christmas 1976

Good Sunday morning all. Settling down for the North London Derby. Footie and Savinelli Jupiter.

 

[dunnyboy]

Hogshead in a Castello 75th Anniversary chubby Canadian.

 

[Steddy]

Year 2018 GL Pease Triple Play. It seems Dark Fired leaf is replacing Latakia for my cold weather smoking. Y’all always say tastes change, I look forward to the evolution.

Yes I truly was going to throw it away. I already agreed to send it to another forum member. Next time I want to throw a pipe away I’ll just do it instead of posting about it so I have to send it out to one of you bastards

If it was something subjective like chamber size, draw being too open, button size etc. I would just trade it on here or trade it into SPC. This thing was drilled poorly and I couldn’t look myself in the mirror knowing I traded it into SPC only for some poor fellow to buy it.

Smoking Sutliff Mark Twain out of my Missouri Meerschaum Ozark.

Rare indoor Sunday morning bowl and mug of coffee - easing into things with KBV Embry’s Hot Mug and a new to me Comoy’s Tradition 496 restored by @ssjones and picked up on the FS. This is a stunning little pipe and barely notice it hanging as I type - good example of what could be found easily for a reasonable price by a beginner that would be a perfect first pipe, IMO.

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday. Early morning in a Charatan while listening to pipe podcasts and juggling on my deck. This is my happy place.

Cleaning some pipes and then it's 2019 OGS in the Anatoly Sibiryatkin pickaxe. This pipe only weighs 19 grams and smokes great:

A quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2013 Capstan Blue Ready Rubbed in a straight black sandblasted 1924 Parker’s Super Briar Bark 11 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. First time smoking this pipe. Took a bit of work get 99 years of smoking out of it.

Super pipe and Capstan Blue is the only VA blend I like so far, and I love it. I still have more to try thank goodness! It might be that the other VA blends I didn’t like had burley in the mix.
