Just finished smoking Sutliff Pressed Burley in a 1929-1931 KBB Kaywoodie Drinkless 7782 straight smooth walnut bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Now smoking D&R Penhooker Silver in a straight smooth brown undated pre-republic Peterson Shamrock 263 Canadian with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite p-lip stem. Still working.
On my 5th bowl of C&D Sun Bear in a 2000 Peterson Deluxe 2s. Raising the floor of the chamber and drilling a new airway that is more centered now allows me to smoke almost all the tobacco with exception of a few strands at the bottom. The airway is a little bit lower than the floor, it it works excellently. My concern was that I didn’t want to hog out too much material and leave the back wall too thin so it would eventually break out.
I’m bad at taking before and after shots. Prior to the work I did there was basically a hole in the side of the chamber about a 1/4” above the floor.
I came up with a new mixture that solidifies and is workable within 24 hours, can be smoked afterwards without involving a lot of dry time. No whacky chemicals involved.
There are a lot of old estates out there that need some chamber work in order to smoke well again, and I’ve done this type of work to a couple dozen pipes.

Now smoking KBV Your Welcome in a straight smooth dark brown 1930s (Comoy’s) Canadian Club 230 eight paneled billiard with a black tapered vulcanite stem.
A third of the way through this bowl of Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a smooth straight brown circa WW2 Trapwell mountain laurel patent apple with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite stem. I'll finish the day with this smoke.
good day folks!! again rising temperatures and another sultry day, with this heat is impossible to do my daily walks this is a bit complicated for me, "the time man in TV predict" that the weekend will be somewhat less hot, but over the years one no longer trusts much of the prvisions so long term, 48 hours
so, now, I'm going to cool off with cold water on the porch and read for a while, my first smoke of the day is Black Parrot in a Negoita Conducta and cool water with ice

Good Morning Folks, Early Morning Pipe in a Sandblast Dunhill Red Bark Zulu.
That sounds much safer than having a nightcap _with_ Dracula
Woke up unreasonably early this morning. So, after relentlessly smoking my IMP billiard the last several days, I gave it a good cleaning and loaded it up with some D&R Rimboché S.J.
Good morning all. Five Brothers in a Country Gent with morning coffee.
Woke up and my nose has cleared out a bit so I started the day with a bowl of Crooner in a MM Country Gent and I got enough flavor to make pipes worth it over cigars and cigs ?. Good thing I’m pig headed and optimistic and brought some HH pure Virginia, bold Kentucky, and some Half and Half to work so I have options throughout the day lmao
Good afternoon. We continue smoking with. PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake, in corn cob Charles Cobbler. And a mug irish coffee..................
HU Nyala in a Kaywoodie Rhodesian from 2020
After lunch smoke of Three Nuns Green in a Savinelli 315KS this blend has become a firm favourite of mine.
Balkan Blue in a Nording Churchwarden.
Flavor seemed a bit less full this time, my last bowl may have been influenced by drinking Dr. Pepper along with smoking a pipe.
Then again if everything is just better when you're drinking Dr. Pepper maybe that just speaks well of Dr. Pepper as a smoking aid.
