I have one which I would consider parting with.
It was sold to me as a "pot."
I don't care what you call it, it has an incredible draft in my opinion.
I am getting closer to operation Clean Sweep going into the action phase.
Going though boxes that I never opened for years today just reinforced my resolve to get closer to sanity.
My first box of free, if you reimburse actual postage after receipt, is happening next week.
If anyone else is interested please shoot me a DM.
I will put some pipes up here before they go off to SP and Blue Room.
Selling off pipes .... hmmm ?

I was pleasantly surprised at what was lurking unopened for years in boxes. SP used to put a shipping manifest of the outside of the boxes which was cool.
Found a Rad Davis pipe in a box. That was cool.
Still just a shame to have too much stuff.
Really working towards normalizing my life.
Hopefully others will find joy in my below-average decision making.
I'll pay for the pipe and shipping. PM me your PayPalMiddle Earth wrote: ↑Sat Nov 18, 2023 6:34 pmThe cause is to have far less stuff, tobacco and pipes included.Tsal wrote: ↑Sat Nov 18, 2023 3:47 pmI'll buy that thing to help the cause.Middle Earth wrote: ↑Tue Nov 07, 2023 11:54 am

The same thought crossed my mind just the other day. I've got several pipes laid out on the dresser, and some I just don't reach for anymore. It's not because they don't smoke well, but because some just don't look good on this handsome mug. Okay, maybe vice versa, some look too dang good for this blue collar mug. LOL Seriously, though, I prefer clenching and smoking so the heavier pipes in my collection probably need to go...but they're so darn perty.

That makes sense . Sometimes tastes change etc ... nothing wrong with bending with the times . I need to figure making a buffer because replacing mine would cost 800 dollars now and thats too steep , so Im gonna rig something to clean up what I have . I figure Ill get a little more if theyre looking as good as they canLongshanks wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2023 7:35 am The same thought crossed my mind just the other day.

Did a drill press survive? Get a cheap 6" wheel and arbor set from Amazon for the press. Works fine just takes a little getting used to with the wheel horizontal instead of verticalRuffinogold wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2023 11:36 amThat makes sense .

Thats not a bad idea because a drill press has belts for multiple speeds . Hell , Id lay it on its side and build a box around it and a " shelf " to stabilize it . Do they have cotton and flannel buffing wheels ?
