Okay, I showed you mine. Now lets see yours!

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

I don't know if I have a picture of all of my pipes. I can post individuals though but that might crowd up the thread. Here is a picture of my tobacco. Each of the mason jar box contains 12 full jars. I also got lucky and won about 6 ounces from various contests that are in route.

Nice baccy pics!

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Thanks Charlie. I see you have alot of great tobacco. I am very fond of the different Frog Morton's as well. Very good stuff in my opinion.

As far as my tobacco goes, I can't say that I am wealthy enough to purchase this much. Most of it was either won from contests, free from Altadis (they had a thing where you sign up and get a free tin sent to you and I registered three separate addresses haha), box passes, or given to me by friends. The largest portion of it though came from a brother over on pipe chat that sent me 3 pounds of pipe tobacco and he also included a Peterson Donegal Rocky. Here is a picture of what he sent me. I am truly amazed at how generous people can be.

This reminds me I need to get back into the bombing spirit :D.

By the way, I am going to go find my pipes right now and take a quick picture.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Wow, nice haul there!

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Here is my pipe collection

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

I like the meer!
Is that a amber stem or does it just look like it?
The paneled pipe in the bottom right corner looks like the jobey that Is in the bottom right of my laptop in my big pic.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

It is block meerschaum with an amber stem. I got it for $20 shipped from a fellow piper over on Pipe Chat. Its not in perfect shape, which is good because I don't worry about little scuffs and whatnot, and for that price I can't complain. I really like how it smokes but I mainly only smoke Stanwell Melange in it.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Wow, that was a steal for that price. With that being real amber it is very old.
Does it also have the bone tenon?

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

I really like your pipes. Are those at the top Savinelli or Stanwell? I can't really tell from the picture. Regardless, you have some very nice looking pipes.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

The one on the top left is the stanwell silver spigot that I also posted later.
The one on the top right is a Rattrays Bog Oak (Morta).

Just snagged this Dunhill Rollalite at an estate shop for 40 bucks.
Just like this lighter, I have bartered and traded up to get nice pipes and baccy.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

No it has a metal one. I wish it had a bone one as those are really neat. I was told it was real amber but I don't know how to verify because of the metal tenon. Some of the tests I have read about are putting it in salt water, true amber floats, burning it, true amber drops like incense but this is a pipe stem so I won't be doing that haha, and wiping a solvent on it, true amber does not dissolve when in contact with most solvents, again this is a pipe stem so I don't want to harm it. If you know of any other way to tell I am all ears.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Sweet lighter. Is that a field manual in the background?

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

No, I have never been lucky enough to acquire one myself.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Yeah I also picked up military field manuals for the m-14 and m-1 carbines. And free no less.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Haha how did you get them for free?

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

When I told the lady that I actually have both of those rifles she said ,just take them.
Plus, she actually thought that 40 bucks was too high for the Dunhill lighter.
She even made the statement that for 40 bucks she could get like 38 lighters from a gas station.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Lol don't the lighters go for $50-$200 on ebay depending on condition? That is cool about the field manuals. I have found some of them online but it is cooler to have the original by far. Plus I like holding something in my hand and you can take it with you when you shoot if you wanted to.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Nice collection MJ!
How well do the paronellis smoke?

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

I've only smoked it once, and it was very windy so not a very good trial run. I hear for as cheap as they are, they smoek fairly well. The draft hole is a little off, but I haven't noticed problems yet.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Here's some of mine (and a little portion of baccy) that I took w/me on a weekend trip last weekend.

Wow!
Saweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

SeeingRed, that's a great volcano you have there. Who produced that one?

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

I know nothing about Pipes but the third one down on the right looks like it was carved from one of Satan's horns!!

Bad Ass MJ :banger :banger

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

John, believe it or not, it's a Brebbia. I got it b/c I'd never seen another like it - plus, I'd always wanted a volcano. It was a "win-win," in corporate-speak ;)

Only thing that's a bit bothersome about it is the stem is a little looser fitting than I'd prefer. Anyone have easy solutions for such things?

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

You can heat the tenon and mash it a bit to make it fit. But it is very easy to screw it up. Study up on it first, or take it to a professional in repairs.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Spencer, you might try asking Frank Romeo about the pipe makers in the pipe club over there. I know there are atleast two or three and I am sure they could help you out. I don't know what the charge would be though but I don't think it would be much.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

I would send it to a professional.
If it was cheap or i didnt care about it i would do it myself.
Its obviously not cheap and you obviously care about it.

That link explains a few methods to fix problem!

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Thanks fellas, I appreciate the sage wisdom. I'll look into it further & let you know the outcome.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Also, new pipe just came in yesterday. My girlfriend got it for me (isn't that nice of her?).

It's a Luciano poker collaborative design by G.L. Pease & di Piazza

very pretty

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

I like that a lot!

(oh, and 5000th post!)

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Very nice grain on that pipe!

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Thanks fellas, it's really nice, has a great hand-feel. Reasonably priced too. If you haven't checked them out yet, you should search your fav online retailer.

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Really nice!

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

You need to hook me up at walmart! Or atleast tell me where you buy your amazing pipes at. I wish I could find/afford some of those pipes as they are amazing looking. When I started out I was just collecting in mass numbers, you definitely go for quality. Very nice collection!

Side note, I found some more of my pipes I am going to restore soon so I will upload a group picture sometime this week (maybe tonight after I knock some work out).

Re: Show them to me, pipes that is!
 

Anybody else?
