I don't see what it would hurt. I would just make sure to use it sparingly, maybe two very small drops on the inside of the ring. Then slide it on and then rotate it a quarter turn to spread out the glue.

The expert on this, however, is not me. This is only an educated guess. Is there a pipemaker in the house?

Maybe the Elmers Ultimate glue would be better. Claims to "bond anything to anything." (Elmers version of Gorilla Glue) http://www.elmers.com/homerepair/ultimate/ Again use a very tiny amount of glue.

Thanks. I am looking for more of a setup with baggies in tupperware. I don't haven enough to put into a jar. I assume you need to keep the tobacco humidified correct?

I personally like my tobaccos a little drier than how they come from the tobacconist. Moist tobaccos cause tongue-bite. So, I even dry them out a bit before putting them into jars. If I'd suggest anything, it would be not to mix you scented (aromatics and/or blends with Latakia) tobaccos with unscented tobaccos. So, a couple jars might be a good idea.

Start with some cheap corn cobs. They are good to "practice" on and are pretty durable. They tend not to "ghost" flavors as well.

Anything on that page is a good starter. I am still a bit nooby on the pipe slope myself. Smoke more cigars than my pipes. I started with these two. http://www.pipesandcigars.com/macvancream.html http://www.pipesandcigars.com/dunmix965.html I've bought some samplers from this place. Very good stuff. https://www.tobacco-barn.com/news.aspx?showarticle=25

A corncob pipe and a pouch of Carter Hall or Prince Albert can make a good starter and a good finisher. Some folks smoke nothing else. They are easy to learn with and there's plenty to enjoy. Do not underestimate the $5.00 corncob pipe - they have excellent smoking properties.

You can also find 4-ounce jam jars at places like WalMart and Target, etc., if you don't need the big ones. The are cheap and they are 1000x more reliable than baggies and tupperware.

![]() ![]() I’ve found buying canning jars by the case, tobacco by the pound and dividing it into 2 ounce portions then canning it, cuts cost by about 40%. |

That's one of those individual opinion things, Jason. Different people with different preferences in pipes and tobacco (and maybe more or less experience) will have different answers. There's not a "yes" or "no" to it but, still, there can be plenty to discuss.
In my opinion, yes. Sure. Sometimes. ![]()
