How many bowls from a 50g tin?
Yes, that would be my answer too. Most tins will last 15 bowls with medium-sized chambers.- Morsoth

Filters, Pros and Cons
I tried adapter/reducer, but I'm not a fan. I bought 6mm and 9mm ones. On my Vauen Auenland Almar, it reduced the air flow way too much, so I removed it and I smoke it without filter. Also, sometime, they can be a pain to remove from the pipe... One got stuck in a Missouri Meerschaum once. After...- Morsoth

Incense In The Bathroom: A Generational Divide?
1.) year you were born: 1980 (Late Gen-X) 2.) do you have incense or a scented candle in your bathroom? No, but maybe I should! 3.) do you have Norman Rockwell decorative plates hanging anyplace in the house? No! 4.) have you bought sticks of palo santos in the last 12 months? Yes! Not just palo...- Morsoth

On Smoking Slowly and the Benefits...
Great post! Most of my briar pipe bowls takes around 1 hour to smoke. When I got sessions ending around 45 minutes, I knew that I had made something wrong (but sometimes, I think it's the wind that accelerated it). I have one-hour lunch break at work, and because I only smoke on Fridays at work...- Morsoth

Do You Know When the IPSD Deals Will Start?
PAD is real. Last year, I claimed loud and clear that my collection was 100% complete. People recognized the lies, and never believed me... And here I am today... I convinced myself that my MM Little Devil Cutty needed a friend the same size to go on the shelf at its side, so I had to order a MM...- Morsoth

Do You Know When the IPSD Deals Will Start?
Great! I ordered the two pipes I wanted this morning before going to work: Peterson Dublin 120 Rusticated + Brigham Voyageur 123 Rusticated, and I added a Missouri Meerschaum Stubby + Pipe Tools (Brigham "Rocky Mountain" Filters + another PocketJar + another tamper).- Morsoth

Do You Know When the IPSD Deals Will Start?
Last year I made my very first order online during the International Pipe Smoking Day deals, and I think it was around February 15, but I'm not sure... Shipping was fast and my first smoke was right on February 20, the day of IPSD! Now, there is 2 pipes that 'screams my name to be adopted' and...- Morsoth

Tobacco Pipe Travel Box
Yeah, I understand! that box is not for a lunt for sure -- I have leather rolls, Maxpedition, and a pocket bag for all kind of situations. I made this box to transport the pipes during road trips or travels. It stays in hotel rooms, but I have all I need for when I need it, and the wooden box is...- Morsoth

Tobacco Pipe Travel Box
Sorry for the very late reply -- most of the time, I'm lurking this forum at work (not logged). The metal capsule is for alcohol to clean up the pipes. This Travel Box was build for when I go on vacation, lets says 3-4 days or 1-2 weeks. I usually clean my pipes after each usage, so if I only...- Morsoth

Quality 9mm Filter Pipes?
I only have four 9mm filter pipes (Peterson Army Sandblasted 106, Rattray Black Sheep 105, Vauen Auenland Almar Sandblasted, and a Ukrainian Pearwood Churchwarden). I don't always use a filter in them, but when I do, I use the Peterson filters. I might try the Vauen or Savinelli filters soon!- Morsoth

Logos Matter
That's funny! The Triskele (Rattray's logo) is what made me buy a Rattray pipe! I'm in utter love with anything Irish or Celtic, and I needed that pipe especially because of the logo. But I completely understand that it can be something any kid would made a tattoo of, like tribal lines!- Morsoth

Am I The Only One?
Yes, I do it all the time. I'm still a new pipe smoker (February 2022), and still unsure of the best way of doing it. What I usually do is that I wait the day after I smoked the pipe to clean it. I take it apart, put a dry pipe cleaner in the steam, then the mortise and draught hole, and after...- Morsoth

Do You Keep The Box?
Yes, I keep all the boxes. I don't have a lot of pipes, so it helps!
