I like to stagger them.
I've been using a new method of packing a flake lately. I just take a sliver off the flake, fold it a few times and stuff it, then repeat (I demonstrate this in my latest YT video). With this one I just go red, black, red, black until it's nearly full, then rub out the last little bit to get it going.
I'm enjoying a bowl right now in my London made Ben Wade apple shape.
Check out my Youtube channel, Razorback Piper Guy if you like that sort of thing.

Thank you sir. I'll check out the video.....

Well it's MMM (March Meer Madness) over on the pipe forum I am a member on, so those who participate smoke only their meerschaums during this month. I only have 1 meer an Emin Brothers Sitting Apple, and it's getting a LOT of attention ATM.
Tobacco wise, so far today it's been:
Old Dark Fired
Orlik Golden Sliced
Vintage Syrian
Just prepared some Anniv. Kake for my after dinner smoke and will be preparing some Triple Play after that.

Had some P&C MATCH Elizabethan on my lunch break.
Now I'm enjoying a bowl of McClelland Blackwoods Flake.

Now having a bowl of one of my all time favorites, SG St. James Flake in my pre-Republic Peterson Shamrock.
I don't know how long this stuff has sat in the tin but it has a lot of sugar crystals on the surface and tastes sublime.

That is indeed a nice flake, I have about 2lbs in my cellar ATM and always a tin ready to open when the urge hits.

Now a bowl of G&H Black Twist Sliced in the same pipe
The black is definitely smoother than the brown but the flavor and ash are totally different; the black has an almost used-motor-oily taste to it. Probably would be an ideal smoke for working on an old beater car...

Been a while since I had a bowl. Between a pulled muscle and a seperated rib,
I haven't been quite up to snuff. So today I felt like something a bit different,
dug out a pouch of MM Great Dane and loaded my figural meer. While digging
around I came across a small pouch of Tamboluka, guess what's next,,,,,,,,
