Hey guys I just wanted to stop by because...I can't help myself even though part of me wanted to keep this pipe maker as my own little secret :twisted: . There is a pipe maker some of you may or may not have noticed on ebay. His name is M. Cascia. His ebay seller page is here...

Hey folks, just got in 2oz of the new blend by Russ Ouellette called Fusilier's Ration. Many of you have likely heard of this blend by now, but the basic rundown is that it is supposed to be Russ's attempt at recreating the popular but sadly discontinued Bengal Slices. I have never had Bengal...

Hi all! I have read many accounts of people singing the praises of the ol' corncob pipe. My first smoke was out of a cob, and I've since smoked maybe ten or so cobs total since then. The odd thing that I've found is that no matter the blend and no matter the number of times the cob has been...

I finally procured some Esoterica Penzance recently and fired up my first bowl of it for lunch. A lot has been said about this blend already and much of my feelings are echoed in the hundreds of reviews floating around the web but...WOW this stuff is excellent. Full, rich, CREAMY smoke. This...

Hey everyone! I’m back again with two new PAD acquisitions from pipe maker Adrian James, who presently sells pipes under the label Tria America. If these pipes strike your fancy, then have a look on ebay for new listings. He presently has a pipe and pen set on ebay now (very much like the first...

I've been reading some about baking tobacco in the oven and how it "smooths" or "rounds out" the flavor and generally makes it more "rich." Check this thread. I decided I have nothing to lose with a couple of my blends since I don't like them. One of these would be McClelland's Blackwoods...

Hey everyone I'm getting married August 5th i.e. 11 days! Woohoo!! My first pipe that I made was a kit pipe from Mark Tinsky that my wife-to-be gifted me. I've been saving the first smoke in it until my wedding day. :D Here are some pics of the pipe I carved. It's not perfect but...I like it...

I've been a long time admirer of Davorin's pipes. I was wondering if anyone has some to show off? Right now pipes2smoke.com has this one that I think is pretty sweet lookin'.

Hi all! One of my side interests is headphones. A good pair of 'phones will provide for a very special, intimate music listening experience. I've been a long time member of www.head-fi.org and recommend anyone else who has even a passing interest in headphones or other various music listening...

Hello everyone! For me, today has been a joyful day as my recently ordered pipe was waiting for me in my mailbox! There is some brief but important back story to this pipe, some of which was discussed in this thread, but I'll give you the basic rundown: I was browsing ebay for a pipe like so...

I noticed that a few people on here have showed off their Tom Leedy pipes, so I thought I should show off my two most recent--this man's pipes are an incredible value! I mean, a mechanically excellent, hand-made pipe for around a $100..inconceivable! First up is the Sir Walter Freehand: That...

Hello everyone! I've been an avid pipe smoker for a few years now. I'm from WV and am currently a law student at WVU. I've lurked these forums for some time now, but now I'm looking forward to being a part of the BoB community! Cheers! :)

I've been smoking my pipe in my car for a couple years now, and I'd consider myself a pseudo-clencher. A clench here, a clench there, but normally the pipe is in my left hand (I'm a lefty). This might not work for everyone's car, but I came up with a way to make driving and smoking my pipe easy...

Hey everyone! I'm 22 and study Psychology at WVU in Morgantown, WV. I've smoked cigars for a few years and dabbled in pipe smoking about a year ago. Now that I have a little money to pour into it, I'm ready to really embrace it. I've browsed this site for a little while now, trying to gain some...
