The picture thread

What beautiful pics of your guys pipes. I don't smoke a pipe but have fond memories of my dad smoking his. Have thought about giving it a go but another slop just might kill me.

To show just what kind of a pipe noob I am, is there NC and CC slopes to pipe smoking?

Again, thank you for the great pics and bringing back some great memories of my dad.

there are a couple cuban pipe tobaccos, but most ppl who've smoked it (and judgement i trust) say it sucked.

there are other types of tobaccos, though, and hundreds of blends in each type. so, if you fell down the "Virginia Slope", as opposed to the "Balkan Slope", then yes, there are different slopes.

Only one slope, the hoarding slope. lol you can never have enough!
With that said there are two slopes, tobacco and pipe.

With pipe tobacco being relatively cheap compared to cigars, in my opinion anyway. You will buy multiples of tins and tobacco in bulk. Why buy 1 tin when you can buy 3 or more? Why buy 2 ounces, when they sell it by the pound?

There is also the pipe slope, which if not watched is pricey.

I just use plain old masking tape and a Sharpie for mine. Ain't pretty, but neither am I.
