A Chacom "Elite' zulu. Part of my flake pipe endeavors. Along with some 1792.

What is it that makes a pipe better for certain tobacco types?

nutcracker · 04-15-2015, 01:43 PM

The bowl is tapered, which allegedly allows for a folded flake to be stuffed in and burn easily without rubbing it out. So far my baby Dunhill bulldog handles flakes the best, and it isn't tapered.

I've had limited success so far, with the bowl getting nasty hot. Not sure if it is a lower quality briar, thin wall, or hot burning Virginia tobacco.

My quest continues.....

WhiteMamba · 04-15-2015, 02:04 PM

I hope it works out for you.

Couldn't pas this up at the local B&M at lunch yesterday. Only 4 bucks, and perfect for a quick lunchtime smoke.

MarkinAZ · 05-07-2015, 11:17 AM

Very nice Kevin

MarkinAZ · 05-15-2015, 10:17 AM

My order arrived yesterday from 4 Noggins; 8oz of John Patton's "Storm Front" and 2 tin's of McClelland's CPCC Samovar (Club Blend for the Chicagoland Pipe Collector's Club)...

mhailey · 05-15-2015, 12:04 PM

Nice pickups Mark.

CoffeeWaterBeer · 05-15-2015, 12:31 PM

Let me know your thoughts on the Samovar Mark. I'm thinking of grabbing some McC Smyrna #1 and GLP Embarcadero now that the Oriental bug has bitten.
I have an unwrapped box at home that should contain 2 tins of Escudo and a tin of Dan Tobacco's Gordan Pym. 4pm cannot come quick enough.

A Nording Eriksen keystone pipe, the keystones that came with the pipe, and some Gawith & Hoggarth Sweet Coconut Twist. Happy Father's day from myself!

MarkinAZ · 06-19-2015, 01:26 PM

Nice looking pipe Matt. Sometimes we have to gift ourselves on Father's Day

CoffeeWaterBeer · 06-20-2015, 07:31 AM

lookin' good Matt!

DMK · 06-23-2015, 12:58 PM

Mail Call....

Couldn't resist 4noggin's sale.....

WhiteMamba · 06-23-2015, 01:34 PM

What are the silver things in the baggies?

DMK · 06-23-2015, 02:29 PM

Tobacco moisteners.

The.Sheepdog · 06-23-2015, 04:23 PM

My tobacco comes to me wet and then the humidity here at 90* adds to it! I put some in the fridge overnight to dry it out!

sweater914 · 06-30-2015, 10:36 AM

I've been trying to post my pipe picture for awhile now, finally had the opportunity this morning.

I'd like to thank nutcracker for his generous pipe tobacco sampler he sent with his hockey pool cigars.

I can't take credit for the pipes, my lovely spouse purchased all of them for me.

The pipe stand was purchased at an antique store in Comfort, TX during my visit attending my brother's wedding. They had several different styles to choose from, I don't know how old it is, but it was well worth the $40, ditto again to my spouse, she wouldn't leave without it.

CoffeeWaterBeer · 06-30-2015, 11:24 AM

That's a nice start! Looks like you have a nice variety of good leaves too.

ksknnr · 06-30-2015, 11:26 AM

nice haul, I too have been on the receiving end of Neil's shipments, great guy!
