Another pipe? That's always good!

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

My first straight pipe and it's a Kaywoodie...all of my pipes are bents...generally I don't like straights...I was, however, perusing the ebay Kaywoodie listings and spotted this little number...octagon-shaped billiard...unsmoked too...the pipe is Kaywoodie shape number 44 “Octagon Apple”...it had the original $15.00 price sticker on the stem...the seller says he thinks the shape and price correspond to that of the 1968-69 Kaywoodie catalog...

Thats a nice looking pipe and a great find on ebay. I found an awesome savinelli pipe on ebay but it needs a lot of love. I do not know if the owner ever cleaned the cake off of this thing. Might be a loss but I am hoping I can bring her back to life.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

i'm sure it can be saved...
got a pic of it?

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Attachment 5857 This is the one from the bay. I will post a good pic this weekend. This is my 5th pipe I have tried to clean up so I am still new at the refurbishing thing. This one will be a good challenge. The outside does not seem too bad it is just the bowl and the mouth piece.

Grabbed a Dunhill Cumberland Poker on fleabay...I love cumberland stems and I've been looking for a Dunhill poker for a while...considering group 5 Dunhill Cumberlands and Dunhill Countys run around $450 new I think I did okay...

Just got in a 8oz tin of GLP Westminster and a 2oz tin of Quiet Nights, eager to give the Quiet Nights a try.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

You like westminster a lot it seems. Still have a tin myself begging to get cracked open.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

That dunhill is freaking awesome. Good job on it.

I finally got my Green 999 spigot. I've been wanting one ever since I seriously started piping last year, and have been on the lookout for one for the last 5 or 6 months. She's almost to pretty to smoke...almost. I also picked up 8oz. of Exhausted Rooster, 2oz. of Mississippi Mud, and 4oz. of SG Chocolate Flake.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Nice score. Love that shape 999 from Peterson. Been eyeballing a few styles myself. Baccy looks good too. Been looking at my tin of Exhausted Rooster in my cellar to try.

The only explanation for buying these all at once was that I came down with a bad case of PAD...dunno which is worse...that or the flu...in fact, I think I may have purchased a few more, but it's all sorta hazy at this point...

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

I really like that Canadian. I think that either that or a churchwarden will be the next one I add to the herd.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

nice dunhill, been thinking of picking one up. Same year as my birth year.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

As do I, the search for one starts now!

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

I stopped by Holt's on the way home from work today. They are very knowledgeable about pipes and pipe tobacco there. I told the clerk that I like a full body pipe tobacco, nothing to fruity so he recommended a couple English blends for me. I wanted to try something from Ashton, the other is a Holt's house blend.
