Har har.....it may too late for me then . I'm still eyeballing the peterson dealers out there. I really want a second one. Currently eyeballing all the #999,#80 and other system models. Overwhelming it is. Might have to wait till Christmas bonus time,the Petey Monkey is relentless. Just got some darkhorse house blend from the shop. I think they said it was a mix of dark and light Burleys with a hint of flavor..seems like Vanilla-ish.I'll be breaking out the Petey 317 for it tonight...Cheers all.Attachment 78808:)
night, i agree about the designating you pipe from one or the other, but where i sit, i dont smoke aromatics, i only smoke the higher vitamin N stuff in.
Real nice lookin pipe, Brother. Speaking of high vitamin N, no surprises from me this evening Old Joe Krantz in a four digit Woodie. As pleasant as my momentary fling with the stogies was, I do believe that in my heart of hearts I'm just a dyed in the wool pipe guy. I think I may be much better off keeping my "default smoke" as a pipe full of burley and only occassionally reaching for a stogie as a treat on weekends or special occassions. Cigars are good but IMHO, pipes are better.
Today was another one of those having a pipe while watching the rain pour down.
Sg skiff in my brigham!
So far My favorite Pipe Tobacco's are as of right now, McClellands Columbian Mocha, and Mac Barens Chocolate Honey, and when I can get it, occasionaly, Samual Gawiths Chocolate Flake.
Your right, there is a theme there, and yes, chocolate isn't for breakfast any more!!
The other day I picked up 3 Falcan Pipes on e-bay that were is, well, ....sorry shape, I buffed my little heart out, reamed out the bowels, polished the stems and polished the bowel with white tripoli followed by pure canuba wax on a new buff whell, all done, BTW, with a Dremel.
I'll put them up for you to see, Hope you like 'em, I love the cool smoke from a Falcon pipe.
Their shinny now but I plane to smoke off some of that shine this weekend!!

The last Photo is the repair I had to do on the bowl with the 2 bad cracks
It's amazing how many use's J B Weld can be put to that has NOTHING to do with auto repair.
I hope this posting is in the right place if not I apologize to one and all,
thank you for your time.

This Vauen has a beautiful grain.
very nice falcons, question, is jb weld safe to smoke tobacco thru, without affecting the taste, and or poisoning the smoker, just curious
