Looks like VermontFreehand.com bought up Pipe Makers Emporium's stock of stems. All shapes and colors. Prices don't seem bad but I haven't bought any pipe making supplies in years. (I have no affiliation with the company or have purchased from them. I use to do business with Pipe Makers Emporium...

Well I think it looks better with the curved mouth piece.

As I said in another thread I just purchased a Dagner Poker Cob pipe. I really didn't care for the short stem and bit. I still have a bunch of pipe making components and briar blocks that I purchased from when Paul Hildebrand owned Pipe Makers Emporium in Phoenix. I like Pokers and Churchwardens...

Hopefully this picture clarifies what Smoker13 is saying.

Remember all of this is to protect the children (yeah right). Just like when they banned the selling of mail order snuff. What Steve said I totally agree and wouldn't be surprised to see it happen.

As luck would have it I just received a Dagner Poker today and to answer your question the shank is drilled wider. Using my drill bits I would say the shank hole for the bit/stem is 7/16" in diameter x 1/2" deep. The kicker was the air hole in the shank was not drilled all the way through to the...

Yowwwww

If I remember correctly Vauen also makes the 9mm filtered pipes. I own both the Vauen and Brigham pipes. Luckily I don't have the sensitivity that filtered pipes offers. I tried using them but didn't like the clean up mess when changing the filters. In my limited experience the charcoal filtered...

Thanks Gentlemen for the answers. Now to find a base blend to add the cognac to.

Yeah I thought I wouldn't be purchasing anything for the next couple months. Ended up ordering up five different cobs, four tins of tobacco and a pound of bulk. So much for restraint. Will be modifying some of the cobs with new stems and bits. Hopefully they will come out okay when done. Going...

Thanks for the information. I was expecting more liquid but will give it a try and let you know the outcome.

Can it be any shape? Would a cob work?

That has some beautiful grain. Congratulations.

To me the biggest factor is in how the pipe smokes. Does it smoke hot, good air flow etc.? How does it handle English blends, Virginia's or aromatics? I have pipes in the $50 to $100 range that are better smoking pipes then one that I paid $300+ for. Again depending on the blend I'm smoking in...

Well I started to tap into my cellar. Opened up a fourteen year old tin of Captain Earle's Honor Blend crumble cake in a Altinok Meerschaum. Its a Red Virginia, mild Cavendish, Turkish and Perique crumble cake. My first impression is very mild with a hint of perique. Taste the Virginia's more...

I just looked and looks like they are already out of stock on six of the eight blends they offer.

Sorry to hear about your friends and neighbors loss.

All of my overseas purchases were many years ago. I purchased several olive wood pipes from Jobert in South Africa with no hitch. I sent him some tobacco and it never reached him. He figured the local customs guys smoked it up. Around the same time I purchased a pipe out of Germany and it...

Paul Olsen My Own Blend The Mixture in my Altinok carved Meerschaum.

Congratulations. I was forced to retire from American Airlines in October of 2018 after 29+ years with them (42 years in aviation) and don't regret a minute of it. The money and benefits were great but so is no more stress and long hours at work, get to spend time with my Son and family and get...
