Default Re: New Pipe Smoker With A Question? Ask an Old Fart

I gotta add this for you newguys: I recently sent my second "Thank You" note to a Secret Santa that hit me with a modified MM Country Gentleman* pipe last December. He started with a bent version, pitched the stem and filed a MM freehand stem to replace it. I have hardly been without this pipe (when smoking virginia/vaper tobaccos) for nearly as year. It is absolutely teriffic. It was puffing some nice Magnolia Avenue from Pipe & Pint this morning and will do the same on the way home from work this evening. MM corncob pipes can last for decades (with some care and maybe a little mud) and may have bowl sizes and smoking qualities that rival your finest briars. For the 20-something bucks it took to put this pipe together I am awed each and every time I use it.
