If youre gonna buy a buffer , buy a Baldor and your great grandson will use it and pass it on to his kids because we are here enjoying pipes and getting our grown up children involved ... because its a good thing . If youre gonna rig one , its pretty easy , and the whoamajogger can adjust speed on whatever gizmo you come up with

Brutal day at work catching up and smoking a " unique " mix I mixed up a bit ago of SPBC , buttered rum shit show and velvet in the shalom work pipe
Thanks for the advice, chief, much appreciated. I'll have to look into that--looked up Baldor's, though, and those are way beyond my budget... I think I'll probably just hand polish them for the time being.

If you have a drill press just buy one of the cheap arbor and wheel sets off Amazon with some different compounds. They work just fine

Five brothers in the belge with a cup of coffee. I do believe I am finished up with night work, at least for a few days. Maybe tonight I'll get some actual sleep

I'm not that bothered at the moment (and I don't have a drill press, no). I guess if my collection grows, I'll probably get something then if I'm selling pipes on occasionally. I'll deffo keep these snippets, though, to refer to in future so much appreciate the advice

This pipe is frigging magic . I havet used a filter in it yet but the draw is wide open and this thing is a champ ! Ive had a mix of CB Dark and H&H , which Im finding to be a wonderful smoke . Had a couple bowls of that this am and now feeling in the mood for Ace of Spades in a good size pipe

The power is still out. The Power company has estimated the power will be back on by midnight Saturday. Thank God I have people I can rely on. My Dad brought a Generator and has the fridge/freezers running and box fans. Its about 90 degrees there. I am still in Virginia. I am smoking Embry’s Christmas Biscuits in a Bamboo Cob and thinking while I wait for this EV to charge. This was suppose to be a work/getaway type deal, but having no idea this was coming, I wish maybe I didnt leave.
