Wow. Beautiful work. Jeff....

Very nice pipe. I bought a Davorin morta and really like it. Jeff...

"Windy" is really cool (pun intended) Seriously, I like that a lot. I would never think of saying anything offensive....That image of Hillary scares me to death. Cheers, Jeff...

Here is a picture of my Soren e-bay special after the clean-up.

My sentiments exactly. Well said. Jeff...

I have a couple of Soren freehand pipes that I really like for both the way that they smoke and the way that they look. My most recent pruchase was from e-bay for $25 and was a bit of a basket case. A good cleaning, light sanding, wax buffing and a new vulcanite freehand stem and the thing...

Interesting to see the same topic so close together. I started the one a few days ago "out your nose" when I noticed that a pipe smoking buddy of mine was not getting the full enjoyment by not running the smoke through his sinus'. As many have stated here,it really enhances the flavor. Jeff...

Sounds like quite a gal. Congratulations. But watch your back; she's going to want a new sun room or some damn thing. ;) Yep. It sounds like a set-up to me.

I have smoked pipes and cigars for years and have always drawn the smoke into my mouth and forced the smoke through my sinus's and out my nose. Only recently have I realized that not everyone does that. Recently, while smoking pipes with a buddy, I couldn't even get him to try it. He flatly...

I agree. Most are made of PVC. I think that they would be relatively safe in that application. Just don't smoke them or consume them in mass quantities. Jeff...

No collection is complete without a MM cob. Jeff....

After seeing your post I did a bit of research to see what an Alco was. I too enjoy my falcons from time to time and it looks like the Alco would be very similar. Are the bowls interchangeable between the two pipes? I am interested to see the results of your post. Jeff...
