    Not new, just back

    Alright buds, it's probably been about a decade since ive been on here and half that since I had a pipe. Broke that today though with a WO Larsen and some Blackpoint. Any big news in the pipe world I missed?

    Calling any "hat guys"

    I am a hat guy, one could say. I have four I routinely wear, unfortunately on two are here on base with me. I have the one in my avatar, it's an oilcloth baseball cap with leather brim. I got it in Ireland, last time I was there. Then an oil cloth driving cap (or flat cap), and a black wool...

    Local Tobacco Shop vs. Online

    I almost always go to my local tobacconist. They have their own blends of tobacco there, some typical blends. They carry a wide variety of pipes and prices that aren't outrageous for what they are. The owner makes pipes too, which are wonderful to smoke out of, and not too badly priced. I'd...

    The most unusual place or activity you have smoked a pipe

    There's a creek in a park near where I live, but it's about 50ft down from the main trail so you have to walk down, where behind a waterfall, there's a natural gas patch, called the Eternal Flame (original name, huh?). Then most people climb back up, I did this with the pipe in my mouth.

    Cake Maintenance Method?

    This is what I do, it turns out pretty well. If my cake is lumpy I roll up some fine sandpaper, stick it in and give it a twist or two

    Ken Collins AKA Pipetongue AKA Dad

    I only had a few encounters with him, but he was a great guy from what I knew from his posts and definitely a key member of BoB. My condolences.

    What drew you to pipes?

    I smoked cigars, then when winter came, it was a pain to smoke a cigar with gloves on, so I tried a pipe and never put it down

    Whistling Pipe?

    If there's a flaw in the drilling, it can create a vortex, causing a whistle. Might be the stem or the bowl. Take the stem out and blow through it see which.

    Well, owner of a local pipe store says it was a pipe made by GBD in the 1970's along with others of their weird 'Modern' look.
