. Four Savinelli estates. The 677 is a recent addition from Jon's Pipe Shop in Urbana IL. The others were in a lot of 8 Ebay Savs I picked up just to get these three. And for you, Harlock999...yep, more steering wheel photos! I sold the floor mats though. The bubble wrap is a bit...

I'm not a fan of huge pipes like this, but if I wanted a chunk of plateau with proven nice grain, predrilled with finished stem, to carve down into something smaller I'd be bidding on this...

Trever Talbert has just set a new high-water mark for all pipe makers in the fantasy category, with his newest Halloween pipes. This is just beyond words.... Be sure to click on his Blog link at the top, for his comments about resuming the Halloween line...

In the late 50's and early 60's I remember attending dirt-track jalopy races in the small town of Ord Nebraska where I lived. Back then it wasn't any kind of a vintage thing, or using purpose-built "new" jalopys, they were the real deal built from old cars nobody would dream of risking on a...

. While I've always thought that the Horn shape looks attractive on a good piece of briar, the shape has never struck me as one that would be easy to smoke. Look at this Ebay offering for example. Its gorgeous, but at 72 grams it certainly is not a clencher, and, to my eyes it doesn't look...

. For me it is in, or near, the upper Mississippi River valley between Red Wing, MN and Dubuque, IA - the region they call the "Driftless Area" because the glaciers flowed around it. The topography is what the entire upper midwest looked like before a series of glacial advances buried most of...

. Economic constraints force me to sell most of my remaining pipe collection - that is, I'm selling 57 pipes and . will keep 16 as my smoking stock. The pipes are being sold on Ebay by Great-Estate-Pipes and the postings began several days ago. I chose Great Estate because he takes decent...

. I can't stop watching the videos of this talented guitarist. This embedded selection below is "Mr. Crowley". The music starts at minute 1.0, then heats up after the intro parts...and its worth the wait. The hyperlink should show a bunch of other selections by the same artist. They're all...

. The story of Pancake Bunny The photo that became popular on the internet 20" x 16" acrylic on canvas - one of a kind - that hangs framed in my bedroom, painted by my friend. The official journal of Oolong Photos: http://www.fsinet.or.jp/~sokaisha/rabbit/rabbit.htm .

This week at my local tobacconist's store I was introduced to the Former-Eltang line of pipes, which they had just begun stocking. This comes on the heels of a recent Hans Nielsen visit to the store. They reminded me a lot of the Bently-Former's Design pipes also stocked in the same store, and...

. I've only worked for two corporations, but a few of the charts shown at this link ring true for me. http://www.businessinsider.com/big-tech-org-charts-2011-6 This one is my favorite though. I've been on the second rung from the top, and I believe I caught more of it than what is shown here...

. Several years ago I replaced the fabric driver's seat of my Toyota truck with a Recaro seat. I stored the original seat in a cardboard box in my garage. Yesterday I noticed the bottom of the box looked eaten away. I lifted some cotton rags that were on top of the box and - YIKES!! - there...

I bought a bag of Mac Baren Scottish Mixture (from bulk) the other day. I like it. Here is a photo of it: http://www.smokingpipes.com/tobacco/by-maker/mac-baren/bulk/moreinfo.cfm?product_id=10778 In the hand and in the pipe it reminds me of a tinned tobacco I used to buy years ago, but I...

. Here's a James Upshall B I picked up in the mid '90s. It has just been cleaned up, so time for photos! . . .

. Here's a nice little Acorn I picked up at the Pipe & Tobacco Shop near the university campus in Little Rock, AR a few years back. I bought this as a vacation memento. Enjoy! . . .

. As of this month, David Johnson (Ozark Mountain Briars) has ceased making pipes due to wood dust allergies. I own 6 or 7 of his pieces. David's work was right up there among the best of US pipe makers in my opinion, and I will greatly miss his output. He had an elegant, neoclassical style...

. Just testing a close-up lens and thought I'd share it. Not too bad maybe, for a $50 lens. I just received the phono cartridge and have not used it yet. Steve . .
