Thanks! Your new pipe looks great. A rotation starts with 1. At least with pipes, you can claim utility for the rotation unlike watches. :-)

Howdy,

Congrats!!! I am very envious of your purchase.

I smoked a pipe for a few years and was actually thinking of doing the same thing of late. Sadly, I have a way of making anything I get into addictive (that's how my pipe evolved into 10 years of quitting cigaretttes). Thus I reluctantly passed seeing as my Rolex addiction is already in full bloom.

Thats a lovey looking pipe by the away!

Take care,

Ruddiger

A late uncle of mine used to smoke one. Even as a child I recall how nice the smell was when compared to horrid cigarette odour.

I love the smell of pipe. My Uncle did this most of my life. Unfortunately when he had his jaw cut out from cancer he made me promise to never smoke one.

Maybe I need a pipe oil for our oil diffuser??? I am sure my wife will love that.

Gonna grab a Missouri Meerschaum.

Old fashion corn cob to take on a fly fishing excursion.

Any recommendations for top tier tobacco to source?

Congratulations Flavio, great looking set up:

I used to smoke a Peterson. I just never caught on to getting the perfect “pack” and ended up getting tongue burn frequently.

Enjoy it

Had a great smoke, on a cheap Missouri Meeschaum Cob. Two great bowels. Enjoyed the company of my son (age 8) talking about everything under the sun.

Had a small storm with some fantastic heat lightening over head for entertainment.
