i am going to order some of the sam gawith 1792. claims to be a stronger flake-agree?
gainesville has 5 pipe shops but all are very limited in selection and carry mostly aromatics. locals seem to like glass pipes and blends i am not familiar with-columbian, mexican and a local grown gainesville green |

The wife just looks at me like I'm crazy 1.Each baccy has its own intricacies when it comes to packing.Takes a little time and patience.This is why it's important to learn one cut proficiently before moving on.I jumped into flakes very early....but ribbon cut and shag were easy to figure out.Still working on those flakes but progressing nicely.Been doing some plug as well.....but I cut it just like a flake. 2.She's just doing her job.

Best burn yet since starting back into pipe smoking. Let air a few minutes, then packed in the 3 fill method but more loosely (looser?) than before. Charring light, then one light and almost burned the whole bowlfull. Slight scorching on stem inside bowl at last. |
