How do you guys pack your pipe? I have been using the "frank method" but jsut wondering ifthere is anoer or a better way.

I am really interested in this tobacco. I am not sure why but I can't buy it. nobdy sells it around here so I need to order it online. before I do any body got a bowl they could spare so I can give it a try first?? I can do a trade if you want.

I found that if I gently purge my pipe after every puff...it cuts down on my gurgle...anyone do this?

A member here sent me some tobaccos to try. The Sea Breeze from the Wharf was quite good, lots of interesting undertastes. A co-worker tried some, liked it so much he wants to order some. Good stuff! Last night, I decided to try the Benjamin Hartwell Private Reserve "Evening Stroll". When I...

Heres a post from the cigar.com forum from the other night some of you guys have already seen it and thanks for your help. Where do you guys order your pipe tobacco? It doesnt need to be the best deals but on the cheaper side would be nice. I am looking for a good site that is secure like...

I just heard from a friend that Bjarne Nielson died of a massive heart attack recently. His pipes are masterpieces of pipe work. He will be missed. Here is an example of his work. http://www.thebriary.com/bjarne.htm

Well, The Mrs. sure did surprise me. Sneaky thing that she is went to Holt's before work yesterday. I had no freakin' idea.... Peterson House Pipe, X61, Sterling Band, P-lip mouthpiece....

Bought some Captain Black Gold today, smoked some while cooking. Not terrible, flavor was faint, but not bad. Couldn't get anything else, had to buy from Safeway.

How often, and how, do I sanitize or disinfect the pipe stems? I do enjoy this stuff!

Well, I thought that we could uses a thread to highlight what pipe tobacco we have just purchased. Like the What Did You Buy Today thread but for pipe tobacco. I was overcome by a bad case of TAD today. I fought it since friday. I bought 2 oz tins of: GLP Montgomery GLP Telegraph Hill...

Just picked up one of these: It's a Kirsten, I've been wanting one a while but couldn't justify it, then found this one on sale for $40 so I kinda had to :) Great smoker, not a lick of condensate gurgle. Plus, gotta love interchangeable parts :)

My wife suprised me with this little jewel that I had been admiring. Mastro de Paja Bent Brandy

I found a second tobacco store in this town, and went by there today. Once again, just like the other place, 3 pipes, all the quality of a lego block, and 99 differant styles of bong and crack pipe. I think I could get fired just for being IN there! I hate a place that advertises tobacco, but...

I read somewhere to properly clean, you pull the stem, run the cleaner through to the bowl, scrub a bit, then use the opposite end to clean the stem from reverse, like scrubbing out a rifle barrel, (see, it CAN be gun related!), and then bend the cleaner into a U shape, and scrub out the bowl...

This is actually a great video...but a little strange. Too much LSD? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqBD4lCHUJo&NR=1

http://www.pipedia.org Decent information for the newbie.

I have been away from the board for a little while now, and I need to get back. So, I was thinking we do a pipe tobacco box pass. I will start it. I will include a $hit load of tins, opened. That way, you can feel free to smoke a bowl before you decide to take it. I will include a few home...

Found a place on the net that manufactures and sells Meerschaum pipes. Of all places it is a manufacturer in Turkey! :shock: Having heard a Meerschaum the greatest I ordered one of their cheepies at $34 delivered. I figured I couldn't get dinged too bad for that money. :? The order...
