[QUOTE="Scallywag, post: 571676, member: 5054"] Two hard and fast rules - Pack it lighter than you think you need and DRY your tobacco dryer than you think you need. When pinched tobacco should have some "flex" but not clump and stay clumped when you pinch it. I agree with the others above. First - relights are part of pipe smoking, so dont be concerned with that, we ALL relight, sometimes several times, sometimes once or twice. But no one lights a pipe once then smokes it to the bottom every time, thats a rarity just so you know. For filling the pipe ill echo, just gravity fill it, tamp a little, then gravity fill again. thats it! Over time youll get it. The MOST important thing is to not worry about relights, it happens. Just enjoy. [/QUOTE]
