i forgot to add im working on breaking in the chacom as i post the pics and trying to build up a cake in it
having never actually smoked a tobacco pipe, does the shape of the pipe actually affect flavour and such? I'm sorry if this is a really newb question here.

I've been smoking a pipe for about 10 years. There's no more or less tendency for that to happen with one shape or the other. It has to do with the pipe itself. Specifically, it's the geometry of the tenon hole to the shank. I've got both straight and bent pipes that never gurgle; also, how you smoke can affect whether you get a lot of moisture; smoking too fast is the usual reason . I started off only buying bent pipes; now I tend towards straight as they're a lot easier to deal with, especially when driving.
I smoked a pipe about 20 years ago, mostly around the camp fire sort of deal. The wife threw it out, and I never replaced it.
Bildo, nice collection of pipes! For some unknown reason I brought my pipes out of storage and ordered a sampler of tobacco. I have 2 Caminetto Business, 2 Savinelli, a Danish free style and a Meerschaum. I put them away years ago when I took up cigars, but, want to give them another try. Glad to see so many pipe smokers also enjoy cigars.
im a cigar smoker enjoying pipes... im just getting into it. I'm trying to read up on the subject as much as possible.
Since we were all sharing our pipe pictures.........this one is the one I drilled a hole in at the end of a long day of building cabinets and re-doing a room. :twisted:
Calibus, is that a pack of CI matches lurking in the background?? I wonder how many of those I have received in the last two years....

Heh, I have all kinds of lighting instruments. The thing in the black case is a Prometheus torch lighter which I use for the cigars. That or a match.
