    A friendly REMINDER from the Mod Team..

    My bad, I'll keep that in mind in the future.

    Churchwardens? Pros? Cons? Preferences?

    I had one, it did smoke cooler, but for me that's like drinking cold coffee. I like my smoke a bit warmer.

    How to light my pipe

    Yep, just a few seconds of burn, then I get nothing as far as lighter fluid taste. I never go out without one of my Zippo's. I also carry Djeep lighters in case my Zippo runs low, though.

    How to light my pipe

    IF I'm in a smoke shop I use matches. If I'm outdoors, I use my Zippo with pipe insert. IF I let the flame burn for maybe two seconds before I light my pipe, I don't get any taste from it.

    Favorite American Pipe Maker...

    I've gotta say Brian Kalnitz out of West Seneca, NY. I know, him, I've got some of his pipes, one I drew up a design for and he made it for me. Real nice guy. Takes good care of pipe smokers.

    Annoying comments directed at pipe smokers

    I naturally dress how I feel for that day, and smoke regardless. Suit somedays, but usually my functional worn clothes. Don't matter. Smoker all the same. Just not sure about why people connect pipe smoking to classy. Only one or two of my friends is really into pipes, I stand out and don't mind.

    Annoying comments directed at pipe smokers

    I dunno, working on a night freight team and being too lazy to shave more than once or twice a month is pretty bad.... Course talking about unclassy we are has to give lots of non-class points

    They Laughed at Me

    I'm 20 and still fumble with my girlfriend's smartphone. Mine is just a basic phone I use for calling and texting. Never really saw the need for anything more. I got a computer for the rest of that stuff. I don't like to pretend I'm more important than I am and thinking I need to check my...

    Need info on a Nording with tight fit of stem

    Find a drillbit that will just fit inside and just give it a twist with the hand, take out a small amount. Worked with my tightfitting pipes with no ill effects. Your discretion, though.

    Annoying comments directed at pipe smokers

    They all usually bother me. Being twenty, smoking a pipe and not small in anyway, it's hard for me to go unnoticed. The comment that always gets me is "Now that's classy." or some configuration of that. Do they mean that as a compliment or an insult? Since obviously in my worn boots, oil...

    Do any of you guys in South Africa know...

    Seeing people who love their pipes so much almost make me feel like a phony sometimes. I love my pipes, but I can't say any of them really are an extension of me.

    Why A Pipe

    The summer of '08, my friend got me a cigar. By that time he was my closest friend and nearly every night of that summer we smoked cigars and walked around the town. I left for college, he left for the Marines. I continued smoking cigars, then winter came and since I had to smoke outside, I...

    Heresy or Genius?

    Well, I had no idea this was somewhat common, done before or had special pipes made for it. I thought I was being quite creative, though I guess it could still be called original somewhat

    Heresy or Genius?

    I rode to a B&M I don't usually go to, and for some reason, was in the mood for a cigar, so I bought a few and smoked one there. I always carry a pipe with me, so when the cigar got short, I wondered what I could do, it was a nice $11 cigar, so I thought why toss a fifth of it away. This is...

    Shipping tobacco to military now allowed

    Hmmm, I did that a few weeks ago for my best bud in the Marines. The said at the post office it wasn't a problem to send pipe tobacco.

    Ink

    On my right arm I have Mjolnir, or Thor's Hammer from Norse mythology. It's religious one, and I also wear a silver hammer on my neck always. But, an unfortunate scar cuts into the tattoo. On the other, I have something I just drew up one day. It's basically the radiation symbol, combined...
