I'd be interested in reading "Tasting Pipe Tobacco". Thanks for all of the information you provide. Truly appreciated! 

motie2

@Kmhartle -- OK, click below

KA9FFJ

@motie2 Just downloaded Tasting Pipe Tobacco for some reading tomorrow/today. Whenever you get the time, could you also make Tobacco Flavor Book available for download. I appreciate it and again, thanks for all you do... 

KA9FFJ

Thanks @motie2 ...

motie2

@KA9FFJ -- You are very welcome. Here's the Tobacco Flavor book, below.

And while I'm at it: @KA9FFJ -- What about this post, in another folder, caused you to hit the DISLIKE button? Are you anti-eBay?

Here's a useful .pdf that just came in.....

@motie2 Again, thanks for making these resources available. I've had relatively good luck buying estate pipes on eBay. I've picked up a few Nordings and a nice vintage Barling over the years. I also like to pick up cheap briars to hone my restoration skills. (I just purchased a Silverking Canadian briar for $5) I think the only thing I would add about eBay that wasn't covered in the .pdf is to be patient. I've been on the hunt for a 2009 Nording Hare for some time. For me, part of the eBay experience is the thrill of the hunt and finding the right pipe at the right price.

@motie2

I'd be interested in the Pipeman's Handbook if you don't mind. Thanks!

Oddjob27

This is awesome! Thank you @motie2! So many I want to read!

motie2

@jdk5hh - Here's the Pipeman's Handbook for downloading, as requested.....

@motie2 Thanks! There's a lot in this pdf! Have you read it through? Did you like it?

@motie2 seems you have become the group's resident librarian and caretaker of the archives.  Thank you for all you do in research, archiving and sharing the information.  It is very much appreciated.

motie2

All it took was two months of research, late summer of 2016, when I decided to take up the pipe again. (I appear to have a touch of obsessive behavior, neh?) Anyway, I hope this contributes in some small way, in the strengthening of the pipe smoking community, here at TPL and elsewhere.... everywhere.....

Kmhartle

I'm checking out the table of contents of The Pipeman's Handbook. It looks looks like a wealth of knowledge! Thanks @motie2

To all our TPL members: I've been telling newcomers that the Free .pdf Pipe Smoking Library ".....is on Page 12 of the Newcomers' discussion folder." What I'd like to do is keep this folder up in the rankings so newcomers and other interested parties can easily find it, peruse the available files, and leave their requests for me to post for downloading, right here in this same folder. And of course, an updated list including any recent acquisitions will be posted here. I'll also try to keep the library folder reasonably near the top, say in the first 10 to 20 discussion folders, using those <Place holding post to keep this folder near the top> posts that worked with the Newcomers folder until Milady Nicole got it pinned to the top.   Any objections?

motie2

Hearing no objections, here we go....

This is the most recent list of offerings from the FREE.pdf PIPE SMOKING LIBRARY.
Let me know what you want and I'll post 'em here for downloading.

Can you attach the articles on Cellaring, Buying Pipes on eBay and Toward a Theology of Pipesmoking?

motie2

@jfreedy -- Sure! Here you are.

motie2

If you request .pdf's in this discussion folder I will post them here, publicly. 

If you request.pdf's in a private message, I'll send them right to you.
