[QUOTE="0ldManJenkins, post: 409818, member: 3770"] This might be a common question, but I didn't see the it directly mentioned. What is the purpose of a filter? I have a Missouri Meershaum pipe, and it came with a filter, and from the descriptions, most if not all their pipes have them. It appears to be not much more than a rolled up piece of (waxy?) paper. The cob tutorial on BoB (great post) said to throw it away, it just gets soggy and dirty. I can't see how it could filter much, but maybe it is supposed to soak up moisture to help avoid tongue bite? Are they used by experienced pipe smokers, and/or would they be of use to a novice? [/QUOTE]
