the Susquehanna pipe chest - this is fantastic

[Growley]

I've been following his work on that cabinet and pipe set a bit. I really need to step up my "pipe storage" some. I keep my pipes in a tupperware box so my wife doesn't complain about the smell.

Reason #54 for needing a Man Cave... So I can keep my pipes out where I can see, and smell them!

Blymey. :shock:

I do kind of want to make a seven-day-set-cob box out of old beer boxes now, with straw or hay to cradle the pipes gently. :lol: That'd be sweet. John Patton? What'cha think?

Nah, this is probably more along the lines of John Patton's style...

That would be a bit uppity for John. If I am not mistaken, he says he keeps them in a shoebox.

Ever see the book, The Pipe by Georges Somethingsomething ... Very good read. Anyway, at one point he recommended the following method of pipe storage. Get a bunch of nails and a hammer. Drive the nails into the wall leaving approx 1 1/2" protruding. Hang your pipes from the nails by the bowls, stems down. I was about to do this one day in my man cave when You-Know-Who happened upon the scene. I admit it's not a museum quality solution to the storage/display problem, but it has appeal for those of us who like to finish one thing and then move on to another.

I laughed, I cried, it (they) became a part of me!




As a journey man wood and metalsmith...I can only look longingly at the pieces and honor the craftsman. Amazing work all around.

Really, I setup like that...what else would there be to look forward to?

Good thing I can sit here, working on my new little 3 Pete-rack project while smoking a nice Harp B5 and enjoy both




This reminds me...Pete and rePete walked into a bar...oh, never mind.

I finally read through the two posts Neill Archer made about that chest and I've got to agree that it is a beauty. Boy howdy would I blush to see the price tag on it.

Impressive.
But I have to say, it's all a bit precious, even for me. And I can be a bit precious...

That is a beautiful cabinet.

Every time I hear Susquehanna though, the old comedy routine from Abbot & Costello comes to mind.

The only other bit that is funnier than that is the Niagara Falls bit.

Slowly I turned... Step by Step... :lol!:
