Hey Pipe makers, I'll be heading out in the next week or so to start buying up skins for Chicago work. If you'll need pipe socks between now and Chicago I would appreciate knowing about it sooner than later. You can contact me at smokinholsters@verizon.net or call and harass me at 631-277-3381. Than...

Hello all, I'm starting to put together an order for leather to make pipe socks. If you would like me to make you pipe socks between now and the end of the year please let me know sometime over the next week or so. After this leather order I can't guarantee the next time I'll be ordering leather unt...

I'll be there !!

Don't know if this is good or not but I just received this email: Hello Everyone, I have been asked in the past about selling some of my briar. I decided to make some available in a very limited supply. What I am selling is Italian plateau blocks aged since 2003. I am using the same wood now. I woul...

Pumpkin Juice ? Where do you live...... Hogsmeade ?

Neil

So you finally make a pipe that's perfect for me, just my style and it's not for sale. There's some irony here but it's lost on me right now.

Neil

I have a couple oif tables reserved and plane reservations so I guess it looks like I'll be there.

Neil

Well, if you're going to give someone the pipe, tell them of the problem and they'll be careful.

Neil

Thart's fairly amazing for a third pipe. Congrats !!

Anyway, the classic tanning takes place in leather processing. There's lots more going on than just chaning the colour. I still wonder if those leather stains often mentioned do something more than just adding pigment… Tanning leather and dying leather are two completely separate processes. A simil...

Not to me.

Trever, While the smoking portion is certainly silly at best I find that two other points irk me almost if not equally. First is this hiding your head in the sand concerning the internet business. I mean let's face it, the internet is not going away any time soon and not facing it's inevitable effec...

I'll be in Columbus and Richmond.

I'll be in Columbus and Richmond.

I'm sorry I didn't have the time to get to the room Thursday night. I really kept my room open until midnight on both Thursday and Friday nights. I did get tio spend some time individually with some of you and a bunch of time with our host (never enough though). I bought one of Rad's pipes and it's ...

How long does it take to make a buffalo 2/4?

Not gonna happen :boohoo:

Neil

Yeah, you can pick 'em Dave. That's the one I would pick too.

Coveting thy neighbor's reserved pipe bag ? That's not like you Tyler :naughty:

Neil

Assuming that they are all the same inside, I like the tan (mid brown?) 2/4 in the middle of the pack. If you're taking reservations you can put my name on that one. Well my friend, that bag is bison on the outside, buckskin on the inside and laced with kangaroo. The bag is somewhat over $300, if y...

Funny thing, with the exception of the more exotic bags, I can't identify the lining on 90% of these. I'll remember them all when I handle them again next week but for now I'm in pretty much ignorant bliss. http://www.smokinholsters.com/chicago_2005.htm I hope to see all of you at the show. Experien...
