About half way through this bowl of Jim's Test VaPer in a 2003 medium bent straight grain Two dot 2 P. Ardor Venere Extra Bucaneve with a silver ferrule signed by Dorelio Rovera.
2015 Thomas Hariot (full press) in a 1985 Ser Jacopo Renaissance #107 (rusticated) taper billiard.
First full press sample that I have of this and it's starting very nicely, as conceived and quite different from the unpressed samples. @EmperorZurg, we need a larger press with a 5-lb drum and a 1000 pound weight :).
Started my afternoon with a bowl of Captain Black Original in my DG Grand Duke
Followed up with G.H. Scottish Flake in my forester 3/4 bent.
Just finished smoking Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a straight 1984 MM General cob.
Thought I'd have some more burley, so it's Heine's Blend in the very first pipe I ever bought ($2.49) in 1974; a smooth three quarter bend Dr. Grabow Omega. Can only imagine how many times I've smoked this pipe in 41 years.
Penzance in a cob. Sacrilege, I know :)
Now smoking the best durn tobacco made today: Strang in a 2003 smooth medium bent straight grain Ardor Venere Extra signed by Dorelio Rovera Dublin.
