    BoB and me...

    Yeah, so we're all different kinds of folks here, with different perspectives and whatnot...guess I'm not really saying anything new with that statement, but lets think of it as the framework to my thoughts.... I've been a member of many a forum over the years.  Usually it's based on a...

    Let's talk Anni Kake

    So, I bought some cans of this a while back and finally got around to trying it. Thus far, I have mixed feelings...which usually means the blend gets left at the wayside. Who out there loves it/hates it and why? I find a "taste" to it (I emailed Russ to ask about toppings...awaiting a...

    Liquid Wax?

    Wonder if this stuff would work for us buffer-less folks: http://usaknifemaker.com/sheath-making-materials-supplies-c-37/fiebing-s-carnauba-creme-4-oz.html :?:

    Cool, but ultimately meaningless...still thought I'd share.

    I was cruising the Boswell gallery for shits & giggles tonight, only to notice that both the churchwardens I bought were on display. Figuring the number of Boswell's sold and that I bought both a few years back, it was pretty cool to see them both up there. Mine are #6 and #29. I still think...

    One Lucky Dude...

    Yup, that's me. And not by any doing of my own now, mind ya. Just is...trust me, there's plenty where the cards don't fall my way. In this instance, though, I thought I'd share my luck and experiences and hear of others, should they care to reply. What am I lucky in? Well, tobak. Click...

    VA breakdown

    So, I see lots of descriptors used for VA. Some I know, some I ain't so sure, as they say... Stoved - this is heated and kinda ferments. Red - not real sure, other than a type of leaf like orange or lemon (I see black, too...). Or are they the colors resultant of some processing? How do the...

    No more Microsoft branded hardware for me

    So, after throwing out my 3rd xbox 360 today, I've vowed to never buy another Microsoft branded piece of hardware as long as I live. Nothing to do with apple vs Microsoft or sony vs Microsoft, but everything to do with Microsoft bringing this piece of crap product to the market. And, more...

    Aging bulk vs tins

    So, what's everyone's opinion on aging bulk in jars vs. buying tins to age? Are the tins just in case of a re-sale down the road? Do you feel similarly aged bulk tastes as good as tinned? Or is the point so negligible that I probably should never have made this post? :confused: What say...

    Check out my new tamper!

    So, my friend is great with his hands. Top notch mechanic, woodworker...he does it all. So, last year I had a knife maker (Justin Gingrich...Ranger Knives..great guy) make me a custom skinner/gutter. Well, couple of months ago my boy asks for some pictures of it. Little did I know what he...

    GLP Triple Play

    Man, I love this stuff. Totally not something I read about and thought "I have to get me some", but boy am I glad I did. Here's my TR review, since I'm too lazy to reword it: I'm all about variety, I'm all about quality and my palette is wider than many. Tobacco moisture, tongue bite, mood...

    Navy Blends

    OK folks, let's hear your favorite Navy blends and why.....please. A genre I haven't tried much of yet, but one for which I am interested in hearing opinions.

    Clenching technique

    So, just wondering how some of you clenchers do your clenching. I seem to prefer to do a full on bite on the bit, just forward of the button. It keeps the image of a dangling pipe that I have in my head consistent. I occasionally do a button hang, but it's more for variety than anything. I...

    Tips??

    So, been puffing for almost a year now, and have done plenty of reading on all aspects. I know the 3 pack method. I know the Frank method. I cut and cube flakes, fold & stuff 'em, and occasionally rub them out. I smoke ribbons, flakes, broken flake, plugs, coins...the gambit I guess. I...
