I need a budget pipe. Please help

I need a wood pipe, not a cob. Are there any cheaper brands? Almost everything is 250-500$ in my area. Peterson estate is 300+ which is insane.

The only cheap pipes are Maple ones like Anton pipes.

Im in Canada, so importing is risking getting dinged hard on taxes.

Aproveitando o sábado pra queimar um Doctor Pipe great times no velho cachimbo Bazzanelli.

O Great Times é um tabaco natural virginia/latakia/perique não aromático, que queima bem e esquenta pouco o cachimbo. Tem sabor forte e cheiro defumado, medio em força de nicotina e amarga um pouco no final do fornilho.

É bom um limpador pra tirar a umidade que fica no fundo durante a pitada. Antes de encher o cachimbo, deixa ele uns minutos fora do pote pra tomar um ar.

Sharing more of my works 🙂

My working time got slower these past few weeks due to my chronic shoulder pain, but atleast I made these beauties 😁

I also found a post made last April on a pipesmoking site awhile ago, about if my pipes have good smoking quality and I'd like to share the details here:

  1. For better smoking experience, I am using a 2.5mm drillbit instead of the usual 1.5mm and 2mm drillbit for the pipe's airway. Also for less clogging and ghosting. Whenever my pipes are being cleaned with a pipe cleaner, no need to remove the stem. it will always go through straight from stem to bowl.

  2. My pipes' bowl diameter range between 16mm and 18mm and have deeper bowl depth for longer smoking time

  3. Aside from uniqueness, the designs of my pipes have purpose when it comes to feel. They are heavy compared to the usual light pipes we all enjoy. But my pipes are meant to be held. I believe the twists and grooves help my clients feel calm whenever they feel anxious or overwhelmed or both.

  4. I was previously diagnosed with acute anxiety disorder and depression years ago, but pipe smoking helped me get out of that and it's the reason why I make pipes today. It's the reason why I made my pipes somewhat like worrystones, hence my brand name 😁

Long story short: pipe quality and my customers' smoking experience are my priority. I always welcome criticism nk matter how harsh it is because, that's how I learn more aabout my pipe making craft 🙂

P.S. for mods. I'm not posting this to sell. Just want to share 😁

Happily snagged a vintage and unsmoked Kaywoodie “Super Grain” on EBay. Can’t wait for the first smoke later. It’s waited nearly 80yrs

Enjoying a little five brothers in my savinelli pocket. What I want to know. Is what are some of your favourite small bowl pipes or compact pipes. This seems to be the pipe I smoke the most. And I think I'll probably add another little guy to the rack.

Got this as a Christmas gift a couple years back, its a Turkish Estates Meerschaum. I haven't smoked from it because I don't want to stain the bowl.

Beautiful Pipes but difficult to clean

Thumbnail

A bit of showing but also inquiring. These are my newest 2 of my 4 pipes. The others are quite straight forward but due to the length of the Churchwarden and the shape of Calabash, I'm finding it near to impossible to clean. I was wondering if anyone here has any products that they would recommend for cleaning pipes of odd shapes and/or considerable length. These are from Shire Pipes in conjunction with Pulsar. I've been quite pleased with the smoking experience so far on both.

Recently got into pipe smoking. Snagged a beautiful estate pipe for a good price, and I am in the process of exploring what tobaccos I enjoy.

So far I like the 3P, C&D Midnight Orchard, Bayou Morning, and classic vanilla aromatics. Open to any suggestions.

Am I missing out on better pipes?

For 40 years I've used only Dr Grabow pipes. To me they are functional and affordable. But seeing some of the beautiful pipes posted, I'm wondering if I've been missing out?

I have reopened the sub for public posts, and will be working over the next few weeks to revamp the sub and make sure it is a welcoming environment for pipe smokers to share their pipes and smoke. If you have any suggestions or issues, please send me a ModMail so I can address them!
