    New Acquisition

    I purchased this JM Boswell Freeform sitter today. It was reasonably priced and smokes like a dream. This is my second Boswell pipe. I really like them. Anyone else on the forum have a Boswell?

    Five Brothers to Pep Things Up!!

    I use about 3 parts 1q to 2 parts 5B. A little less than half. It gives me a bit of a kick, but still lets the aromatic taste come through.

    Zippo customer service

    I did not want a "free part". I was interested in exchanging one part for another so it is more user friendly to me. I know they used to exchange a regular insert for a pipe insert. If they dont still do that of course I will buy one.

    Zippo customer service

    I just read on some form that they no longer do that. Did you do this recently?

    Zippo customer service

    I hope this is in the right category, but if not, please forgive me. I heard through various forums that if you mail your regular zippo lighter back to the factory, they will replace the insert with a pipe. Insert free of charge. I sent messages on two separate occasions to their customer...

    Five Brothers to Pep Things Up!!

    I bought a pouch of five brothers tobacco a couple months ago and smoked a bowl and did not particularly enjoy it. The taste was fine, but it burnt fast and the nicotine hit was a little much for me. Since I didn't pay that much for it, I decided that the pouch will probably go unsmoked. Last...

    Plug tobacco

    I recently bought a couple of tins of tobacco and didnt realize they were in plug form. Im sure the shop that I bought them from would take them back but I decided to keep them. I have not smoked plug before but I watched some youtube videos to figure it out. Do you guys have any specific...

    Is This Normal?

    Thank you for your kind words. Once I learned about the breath method it changed my smoking. Finding a pace and cadence made such a difference. I haven't smoked a cigar in months. The subtle flavors of pipe tobacco are a good fit for me. I also am grateful for the community of pipe smokers.

    Is This Normal?

    Thank you for the quick reply. I have been smoking lots of aromatics and the Northwoods and particularly the Plum Pudding seemed a bit stronger with more of a flavor punch. I really enjoy the aromatics but also enjoyed the richer flavors of the other blends I mentioned. I would like to explore...

    Is This Normal?

    Title edited. No all caps. See Rule 9. I am a relatively new pipe smoker(about 2 years) but smoked cigars for several years. In the last 2 years I have put many miles on some inexpensive estate pipes. Recently I bought my first new pipe, a large Boswell. I smoked my first bowl in it which was...

    PIPE STAND MADE FROM SEASHELLS

    We went to the beach and picked up a bunch of seashells. As I looked at them I could visualize a pipe stand. What else would I use them for? People have probably done this before but I am feeling like a great inventor!! Here is my new creation with my brand new Boswell pipe!

    Nathan "CrashTheGrey" Davis on Radio Show of May 7, 2024

    @crashthegrey I just listened to the episode. I found it very inspiring and wish you success! The piping world has such an interesting link to history. Glad you are part of it!

    Boswell Northwoods

    Just smoke my first few bowls of Boswells Northwoods. It is a great tobacco and so easy to smoke. Im curious if anyone else has tried Northwoods and would like to hear your thoughts.

    Progress

    I am relatively new to pipe smoking(smoked cigars for many years) and like most people I had trouble keeping the dang thing lit and I had a consistent problem with gurgling. It seemed liked I was doing everything right but I was missing something. Last week I was crusing throigh some old forum...

    Your Experience with Bit Grips/Softy Bits?

    This may be an old thread but I thought I would respond anyway. I probably have 50+ pipes and every one has a softy bit or a similar thing. I am a clencher and often have a pipe in my face and cant smoke with out them. To each his own!
