Meerschaum Pipe Stemwork
Sellers often picture meerschaum pipes against a black background, which makes figuring out how well cut a stem is a mite tricky. What's your experience, are there any recommendations for makers based on stemwork/mouthfeel?- Toast

GH Kendal House, Initial Impressions
Standard 'I'm not JimInks' disclaimer - & this is based off two bowls, so an additional pinch of salt required. The description online reads: 'A mix of Burley, Cavendish and Virginia with a faint topping of Molasses. This broken flake tobacco has an earth smell to it and smokes deliciously...- Toast

Marek Kando Seven Day Set
I kind of have to post this as the eighth pipe is in the post! So, no more prevarication - here's my first proper seven day set. I genuinely love everything about them. They have an amazing restraint & flow - my photos do them no justice at all. They're wonderful smokers. & Marek's stem work... -
New GH Blends
Looks like GH have made some new blends - a Gold Shag Latakia, Gold Shag Perique, & a Kendal House. The last sounds pretty exciting, a VaBurCav with a light molasses topping. Notes of grass & citrus. Definitely adding that one to my next order!- Toast

Pietenpauws & My Third Commission
His name doesn't show up very often here - so I thought I'd use getting my third commission as an excuse to show Pietenpauw some love. Jean made a rhino pipe called Hope a while back which I think is stunning - it's on his website & well worth a look. Having stared at it for much too long, I...- Toast

Aluminum Tipped Stems...?
An Ashton churchwarden has just finished on eBay - with a feature I'd not seen before, an aluminium Tipped stem. I'm assuming this is to protect it - but it seemed a bit counterintuitive to use a softer stem material that needs more maintenance & then cover it with metal exactly where most... -
3x Strawberry Askwith
I like to imagine that word of The Alaskan Seven Day Pipe Set set the world of pipe makers abuzz. Finally! The contribution that they could make to culture & history was now unmistakable. Pipe craftsmen & women should be taken seriously. As should the product of their craft, their sweat, their... -

Issues With A New Pipe, Being Mindful Of Rule 12
Disclaimer: I've read through the explanations of rule 12 & I think this is in line. Apologies to the mods & the community if it isn't. I had a problem with a pipe & I reported that to the seller, but I'm a little concerned about the solution they've proposed & I'd like a second opinion. I... -
Show Us Your Pretty Profile Pipes
This arrived in the post today & I realised it was the second pipe I've bought almost entirely because of how much I liked the profile: (A tiny little Bruyere St Claude.) This Marek Kando is the other: So, have you ever bought a pipe for it's profile (side views only please, none of this...- Toast

Hello
Hello, I'm going to start off by saying thanks - this is where I go when I need a second opinion, more information, or fuel for my PAD/TAD. This place is great. I'll try to keep the stupid questions down (why VaPer not ViPer; wierd Charatan pipe markings & their dating). Nice to meet you all!- Toast
