    Home from the tobacconist

    Sounds like you got a good selection of tobacco there. Enjoy them. Allegheny. Sounds like you're not too far from me. I'm outside of the Buffalo area.

    C&D's Black Duck

    I've been eying this blend up for a while. This might push me to pull the trigger in the coming days. Glad to hear you're enjoying it. Cheers

    Boswell Blends

    I cannot say enough good things about Northwoods. I buy it by the pound and have a hard time making it last. As D&B said, it is a bit sweeter than standard English blends but it is great in its own right. Countryside is also just as good but a bit lighter. I've never had any of their aero's...

    What do you collect besides pipes?

    Ahhh bro it shouldn't be like that. I've tied flies and collected materials over time. I didn't come out the gate tying flies like that ( and I'm by no means super at it either. I can point out things in all of those flies that could use improvement ) It takes practice. I'd love to see samples...

    Jack Knife Plug

    Both JKP and Triple Play are both regulars for me. Here is how I prepare them. Slice off a flake ( I have found that a 10$ Rapala Filet Knife does this job absolutely the best ) Cut it across the grain the length of the flake and then cut it with the grain across the flake creating cubes. Let...

    My snuff stash (retitled thread)

    I have, as of late, also been thinking about giving snuff a try. Reading through this post was funny. You really jumped right in there. Glad you're enjoying it. The stuff seems cheap enough really that your long grocery lists really don't look that bad. I'll place an order here one of these days...

    New (to me) savinelli 603 from ebay with loose bit. fixed?

    I would suggest not expanding the tenon via heat and press. i would also not put nail polish on it. The wax method is a good one. I would stick with that. The pipe may have not been smoked for some time now and the wood has to re settle. Smoking it regularly should fix this problem as the wood...
