nope, i already called this, doug. i WAS doing you the courtesy of NOT telling anyone you were going this route, but whatevs. o)

Sean- am I reading this right that Doug wants to explore the world of pipe smoking? If I'm right, I would so love to help whoever is pushing him!

 

[javajunkie]

I had already agreed to send KK a starter package, and even keep his new interest under wraps. as doug has opted to make this public, i can only assume he is welcoming input from others as well...

and imma be packing three pipe bombs today; my 2 n00bs and the lucky bastard lotto winner should have trackers mañana.

 

[King Kill 33]

I want to start slow. Sean, I will send out some goodies for your troubles mañana, which in my limited Spanish, means Monday.

... and suddenly i am reminded of "let's see who can hit the lightest"...

 

[Sirspanksalot]

Java wants a competition KK. Maybe you should give it to him ha

3rd try was a charm. I dove in blind, didn't stay lit. I tried the three layer pack, too tight. Found a video of "the Frank method" and packed a perfect bowl.

I believe I packed PS Golden Dansk .

I love the aroma. Flavor is so wildly different than anything in cigar land. And a good pipe tobacco so much different than the peach and vanilla aromatics I used to puff on years ago when I had a DG pipe I puffed at work. Also, getting the pack right made a huge difference.

Ive got a lot of reading to do before I start posting repeat noob questions.

URB, Thanks again

Yeah, I tried the "baby, lady, man" pack and didn't end up with a good bowl.

Tried the "man, man, ex-wife" pack and it was much better.

Plus another wrench to throw in is different blends need different packs plus different pipes pack all their own.

Yeah, I'm learning that, too.

 

[Whtwtrman79]

yeah it can be different from one baccy to another depending on cut/moisture and pipe chosen

 

[thedismaltrade]

I can sponsor a newbie if we have one waiting

Well, since we're in a bit of a lull right now awaiting more n00bs, let me take a quick moment to thank Dave (Grrrr) as well as UtahRootBeer, JavaJunkie, Andy, Hoshy, Deadman, and TheDismalTrade for being sponsors of this. As you can tell, I've been hit hard by the pipe bug and it would never have happened without this thread. Actually, it wouldn't have happened without the brothers here being so generous with time and resources.

So guys, thanks - it's been appreciated! (and, damn you, Dave!)
