[QUOTE="Justpipes, post: 4664, member: 38"] Dave, I agree with Bill. Just as confirmation to what he said you may need to pack a little looser especially the bottom third of the bowl. I always think of 1/3s concerning pipe bowls and especially when packing them. Sort of like building a fire. I use the gravity method almost always when packing a bowl. I let the tobacco loosley fill the bowl by gravity and them pack the first filling very lightly. Then I fill it again and pack a little firmer and again with a little more firmness until the bowl is at the desired level. Somtimes the firmness has to be adjusted for different tobaccos and their moisture content and the different pipes, depending on the shape of the bowl. [/QUOTE]
