    Not a smoking room, but the closest I have...

    Love it. Very cozy. But, do you have an exhaust fan?

    OK…a Ron Special…MORTA.

    I've never smoked a morta. How would you describe its smoking characteristics to those of briar? (PS/ autocorrect doesn't like 'morta.')

    Donation?

    C'mon guys. If you can afford a half-way decent pipe you can afford to support this great group. There must be 250 pipesters with $20 to spare. Let's help them get that up-grade!

    HS Studio

    I've seen a lot of interesting designs and good-looking briar come out of HS Studio which I believe is in China. Does anyone have information on this company? Thanks.

    A few random shots of my smoking den. What does yours look like?

    About the regimentals . . . I think you should secure the BOWLS to the wall as well as the stems. The corks can dry out and let the bowls fall off the stems.

    Brand New Pix of My Smoking Lounge

    Re: your interest in books. I remember a NY show, maybe 20 years ago, where Clarence Mickels had for sale a first edition of "My Lady Nicotine" signed by J.M.Barrie. He wanted $90 for it. Fool that I was, I thought that was excessive, and passed on. To this day, I regret that decision. I...

    Ed Burak's Connoisseur Giants

    I've been collecting Connoisseurs for a long time. Although I do have the large pipes shown in the photo, the great majority of his pipes are more "regular" in size. I have about 25 in that "regular" size.
