From my friend Alex I got the excellent Skiff Mixture by Samuel Gawith
I used it today with my only one Meerschaum I have with me.

Well guys I took a dive today and ordered this Savinelli Carmaella after being outbid on this Jirsa, Judd's Very Nice UNSMOKED Jirsa Pipe with Pipe Sock | eBay with a max bid of $90.00, I placed my max bid last night around midnight while I was still the high bidder at around $14.50 I figured I'd win for sure with a $90 dollar max bid, I was outbid three hours before the auction ended, and wasn't going any higher cause you can buy a new Jirsa for a little less than $100.00 online. Anyway I ordered this pipe, a chrome fold out stand, Balsa Filters, and two more tins of tobacco for two bucks less than the Jirsa sold for. I'm Happy !

Oh and BTW I sold a Straight Razor last night just to bid high on the Jirsa, oh well I'm
selling one addiction now for another, go figure

Eric,

After seen all these excellent pipes of yours i've noticed that they all have real nice finish. Do you use carnauba wax and how do you get them so shiny?

Yes, Carnuba wax is what I use. When I buy estate pipes I clean them vigorously and buff them with Brown Tripoli, Red Rouge, White Diamond and then Carnuba Wax. I have a set of flannel buffer wheels that I use on a motor, which makes it easier to apply the compounds as well as get a real nice shine. After each smoke I wipe them down with a soft cloth before returning them to my racks. I'm kind of anal about keeping my pipes clean...lol....

Worked all day doing some upgrades in the shop. Picked up my new air compressor yesterday and should have it totally running by tuesday. That means sandblasts for the website!
