The wife went pipe crazy on me this week. 14 pipe mixture. Not going to name them but enjoy the looky-loo.

Dunno yet. I’ll let ya know once I smoke it some. Everything I’ve seen about them says it smokes a little cooler but I’ve also seen some say it smokes a little moister in high humidity areas. Thanks, Chris

Happy (Albeit late) IPSD! It was a great day for piping! Thanks, Chris

Hello and welcome.

Hello and welcome.

This is mt newest acquisition…Nord Compass. It was in a starter set that was on sale new for 30.00 with a tin of 4th Generation 1957 Erik Michael Blend, pipe cleaners and a cheq tool. Good deal as it is usuall about 60.00 or more.Wife (CFO) say that the first step in handling my addiction is...

If you send me the WHOLE tin I can smoke it for you and tell you if it is indeed still good or not…LOL! Thanks, Chris

What do you suggest for the sweetness part or does the Kraken dark rum cover that too? Thanks, Chris

I really like that OOM-PAUL shape. Very nice! Thanks, Chris

Those are beautiful! Every pipe has some sort of story and they should be cherished. Thanks for sharing. Thanks, Chris P.S.=> If he is looking to adopt a 50 y/o let me know...lol!

That is my cleaning solution. 50% Everclear (for cleaning and disinfecting) and 50% mouthwash (for freshening). All I had available when I mixed it was a squeeze bottle. I use it clean the stem with a pipe cleaner. Thanks, Chris

Seems to me it's just an opinion. I think bowl up would have a slight advantage for wet smokers as the moisture would down and.maybe not soak into the briar. Just a guess though. Thanks, Chris

Love the look! I'm a big fan of rustic decor and old farmhouse. Outstanding job! Thanks, Chris

This is my newest. Born this evening. Going to put EEE on it this week when I get a moment. This dark walnut and either a bowl, egg, peat, wasp nest, or combination of all, shape. Not a sitter this time. I made the pipe couch out of leather with minor saddle stitching and rivets. Works well...
