Re: Pipe refinishing
I forgot to mention that I also purchased 4 stummels at the pipe show for 10 bucks!
I'm starting off by showing you 3 of the 4...
I'll be looking forward to cleaning and generally refurbishing them before stemming...

Re: Other Hobbies
@opipeman my father was a fireman for 40 years. I remember seeing those smaller hand pump extinguishers at the house from time to time. He would periodically bring home those taller old brass ones as well.

Re: What are you guys smoking right Now?
Here's a blend you don't hear much about and I don't know why.
Sutliff 245-ZBC in a reworked Tinderbox billiard.
This blend is steamed dark fired Kentucky and topped with caramel, creme and vanilla.
It's actually quite good IMHO...

Re: Strait grain or Birds eye
@mfresa I agree totally with you concerning the love of the grain. But I do sometimes find myself having to rusticate an old pipe when too many flaws/fills are found. I can then take a pipe that you can't see beyond the flaws and turn it into a pipe that shape and function take over. Again, if there is any way to get around fills and flaws, I always do my best to keep the grain to the forefront. But then again, that's just me...
