Greetings everyone. Thanks to Sherlock's help I can log in again after years of lurking (thanks Sherlock!). I gave up tobacco in 2013 and haven't touched it since. Sold all but 10 of my pipes, keeping eight David Johnsons which I could not part with. Spock: that is illogical. Pipes are such...

Loose stem: A dent in a smooth briar pipe of mine was partially removed at a pipe shop. I was not present to see it. Asked how he did it, he said he rubbed the dent to make the wood heat up...and swell up. The dent was reduced, though not totally removed. That said I do not know if rubbing...

. I presume it does not have to be a car that actually exists...this is my dream.

I agree, that's a nice one!  You might enjoy these photos of a Ruff-Root I once owned. http://www.stevesite.us/images/pipes/sasieni/ Steve

Nice to see what a Ruthenberg natural looks like after it has been enjoyed a lot.  I like it.  So...I have this mental picture of a Ruthenberg pipe having a replacement stem not made by Brian.  It is a disturbing picture, like a "Frankenpipe" or a poorly photoshopped image.  When you have...

I owned a R100 GSPD for 8 years and had a blast doing the AdvRider thing on jeep roads in the Western states. One thing I could not do on it, though, is putt along at 55 mph on a paved road and be content - it just made me impatient and fidgety on that bike. My Victory V92C cured that and it...

Very nice! Steve

Thanks for the matches info. I eat supper at Yoders in Arthur several times per month. I have furniture in my house that was built two miles from Beachy's, at the Pineview woodworking shop, and a bunch of clothes from my favorite men's store Delbert's. Arthur is great little town. Steve

. Here is the person who is said to have inspired Elzie Segar's creation of the Popeye character. His name is Frank "Rocky" Fiegel. He lived in Chester Illinois, the Mississippi River town that Segar grew up in. Fiegel would have been about 61 years old when Popeye was created. Not a good...

Yak, I can just picture your brain squirming like a toad with that. :) Steve

My car or pickup is the only place I smoke. There's nothing like a drive in the countryside for pleasant entertainment and for getting lost in one's thoughts. I'm like a smoking, thinking dog I guess, except I don't hang my head out the window. Steve

The actual ruling from the pages of the Federal Register is here: http://www.copyright.gov/fedreg/2012/77fr65260.pdf The ruling is driven by software copyright and fair-use considerations. Those topics get complex but the reasoning behind the rule is pretty well laid out in the document, as...

If any pipe ever reminded me of a stained histology thin section, that Bang would be it. It would be like smoking a gland out of some animal! Steve

If there were rustication on it why would that point to Charatan? Steve

I would include Willmer as a potential maker as well. The stem is a dead ringer for it. Steve
