Re: Pipe, Tobacco, and E-Bay Acquisitions
My first pipe purchase in 20+ years since my last pipe purchase. This is my first Stanwell & first bulldog. I'm in the process of breaking the pipe in. Very happy with the pipe so far. I'm also waiting for the Dunhill & Mastro de Paja pipes to arrive. (I added the rubber bit today.)

I've got a Stanwell pretty close to that, you won't be disappointed. It is a great smoker

Thanks for the comment Don. I can see this pipe becoming one of my favorite one.

Re: Pipe, Tobacco, and E-Bay Acquisitions
Hey All,

Received a pipe from EBay and had to give it a major cleanup. Salt, Alcohol treatment ect. Well it cleaned up great. It's a Willard semi-bent model. Actually it looks like it wasn't really smoked all that much. Goopy icky stuff, aromatics probably? Burned some Old Dublin in it, and it smokes great. Once I get a decent cake built up, I think it'll be a winner. Don't know much about Willard Pipes, but I have a few of them, and all of them are excellent smokers. Now my all around fave pipe is a Bent Grabow from EBay, and you gotta try really hard to get the thing hot, no matter what you put in it.

Hey, if you live in Indianapolis, they opened a Cuban Restaurant off of 38th and Moller. The food is to die for, and the people working there are really friendly. Check out their Ropa Vieja. I've been waiting twenty years for a Cuban restaurant to open in Indy. Yee Haw!

Re: Pipe, Tobacco, and E-Bay Acquisitions
I've been having impure thoughts about bulldog pipes lately so I decided to go ahead and pick one up. I also like Bjarne pipes. I only had one prior to this pipe but it smokes great so I figured why not get another. This pic is one from the auction, (don't have my camera with me at work right now), and will have to do for now. At first inspection everything looks fantastic. The stem has a very tight, snug fit and the air hole, just as my other Bjarne, appears to be directly in the bottom of the bowl. It's slightly smaller than I was thinking it might be but still has a nice feel to it. It will be smoked tonight. Can anyone recommend a "bulldog" that is a larger sized pipe? Nothing wrong with more additions in the future.....

That is one fine pipe, I love the color. Check out Johs and some Pertersons. Randy Wiley makes some very nice ones.
Bulldogs have recently become my favorite pipe,good choice

Nice looking pipe. I got the Stanwell bulldog recently. It's becoming one of my favorite pipes. I was surprised with its "smaller" size but it's the right size for me.

Re: Pipe, Tobacco, and E-Bay Acquisitions
I'd ask everyone to hold off bidding on any pipes for the next week as I'm looking to get my first 'good' pipe.
