Salutations!

I've recently gotten into pipe smoking about a month or so ago. I'm enjoying the hobby and collecting new pipes and trying new tobaccos.

I'm a full time student at Ohio University studying Philosophy and Political Theory. Applying to grad school. I'm a knife/blade enthusiast, my father runs a small welding and smithing shop so I know a little bit about metallurgy. I hope to meet some new friends and gain some knowledge!

Thanks
 
Looks like Ohio may have more fellow pipe smokers than I thought. Welcome from a fellow Buckeye!
 
Welcome, I am new here too, but already know there are a lot of good people here. Real friendly board.

Welcome aboard,,,,Philosophy and Political Theory???,,,,you should feel right at home in the Rubber Room,,,,,
 
Might I add, I just went and saw all the cellar pics you guys posted and HOLY CRAP you guys are intense! Just curious what's the reason for bulking up on THAT much tobacco? I know some store in original purchase tins and others can what I assume to be bulk bag tobacco? What's the pros and cons of each? Just curious because I have a feeling if pipe smoking is like my blade collecting habit I'll be giving you guys a run for your money in a few years time :lol!:
 
Some tobaccos age, like wine...

You never know when Uncle sugar is going to jack taxes up..When I started (not that long ago really) a tin of Dunhill Nightcap was $4.98.. and I bitched about the price..lol

With Geopolitical upheaval you never know when the component tobaccos will not be available..

Recipes sometimes change, usually when a brand is bought sold.. It sometimes really really matters..

Its fun to show of your stash and freak people out...lol.
 
Oh yeah Cons???

Ummm you'll be broke and your Mrs will think your fuggin nutty...lol

Still cheaper than Cigs and Cigars though..
 
Welcome to the BoB! Good ol' Athens, OH, huh? Nice little school. My sister is a grad student over there.
