    What Are You Smoking Pages.

    Not much luck dating this pipe. They opened in1895 and I've found ads in newspapers from the 1920s as well as advert postcards from that time period. I'm going to date it as "old" like me. Probably older. I've given it a good cleaning and sanitized it. Going to give it a try with C&D Engine...

    What Are You Smoking Pages.

    I bought a pair of these go Go -Go pipes on a whim. Certainly didn't see myself smoking them often. Again totally wrong. Great little pipe. Fits in a shirt pocket and sturdy as all get out. I put it in my pants pocket a couple of times to do work and it stayed lit between pocketings. I like...

    Help with this pipe.

    I'm getting ready to clean up this pipe. I can't really find much about the company. A Runge & Co Pipe Tobacco postcard or ads are on ebay but they seem pretty old. From Philadelphia PA but that's about it. I'd like to know how careful I should be cleaning it up. Thanks Michael

    I've been using my finger. Maybe epoxy it closed. Here's mine. And the evil vent.

    I can't wait to sit and smoke a bowl with you when this is all over. Zoom has uses far beyond work. You'll be in my thoughts until this is over.

    I'm way over having to go outside. I enjoy walking and smoking my pipe. But that's weather dependent. After working all day in the weather (PNW) the last thing I want is to leave the dry and warm and go outside. I've enjoyed the view all day anyway. But I do because my brother has COPD and the...

    Can anyone help me identifying?

    I'm so envious of the the pipe racks.

    Just finished a bowl of Chatsworth in my Kaywoodie. Using my custom made tamper. Made from a chopstick. Going outside in the cold to smoke is getting old. I think I'm going to buy an ice fishing tent and man cave it.

    You need to toss a couple of flies down on the table for your next picture. I think I see a vise hiding in the background.

    Exactly my sentiment. Some of the pipes people post are awe inspiring. The artist's ability to find the right shape for the grain. The textures and colors. All in a piece of art you set on fire thousands of times to prove it won't combust. Burning man has nothing on us.

    It smoked like a dream. Feels nice in the hand. Good sized bowl. Stays lit. It's a great pipe. Happy with it.

    Rains still coming down. I did enough chainsaw work today and now I'm going to smoke the Nutty Irishman I setup yesterday and didn't smoke. My dog and I are under the canopy hanging out and I'm having a lovely vanilla latte I just made.

    And my son's name is Basil so that really caught my eye. Is he still making pipes? Having a Basil make a pipe for Basil would be cool. The name is not very common.. Like Michael. Five of us in my class from kindergarten to 5th grade. Three Michael B's. I named him after Basil Faulty, from...

    Too tired to sleep and trying to let my brother rest. Going to sit outside and smoke some cobblestone vanilla custard and listen to the wind. I finished 'All these Worlds' the last installment of The Bobiverse series. Have to wait for the next one🙁 It's always sad when I hit the last book of a...

    I hope it's a poker as that's what I'm trying to collect for 2025. 🤗 If not... Won't be my last time getting the wrong pipe. All kidding aside. It's a poker. It's from an American maker and I don't have many of them and I'm trying to vary my countries and makers. And it was pretty 😁.
