I thought I'd show off what I've collected so far. I'll show them and describe them in order of bowl size, from smallest to largest. From the left is a Stanwell Featherweight 200, bowl volume of 4.4 cc; then a Peterson System Standard 303, P-lip stem, bowl volume of 5.6 cc; and last is a...

At the reception following a wedding in Ireland, someone yelled "All of the married men, please stand next to the one person who has made your life worth living!" The bartender was nearly crushed to death. :lol:

Bulk SG Squadron Leader at Pipes and Cigars!

Brothers, close by retailer is closing out, and has Rattray's tins for some very good prices. I need recommendations of what to purchase while he still has stock. Thanks for any input.

Have any recommendations for differing bowl sizes for Aromatics and Non-aromatics? Small for one and large for the other? How about bowl size for flakes vs loose cut vs ready rubbed? Just sittin' here thinkin'

It's kind of hard trying to break in five new pipes at the same time and try out a bunch of different blends while limiting one's self to only two bowls a day. And I know that the blends will taste differently when the pipes are broken in. Question for the Brothers: What about storage in the...

I just finished a bowl of Davidoff Red Mixture in my Peterson System Standard 303. After a short afternoon ride on the XR. Sitting in the workshop, listening to the guineas squawk as they discuss perching order while the sun goes down; and staring at the oldest boy's old bicycle. Kept it with...

Greetings, All. A new joinee from eastern Kentucky; and a returnee to the pleasures of the Briar. Many years ago I smoked a pipe, but promotions to outside assignments and shortage of time to minister to the processes of pipe smoking during the workday led me away from the pipe to cigarettes...
