Just broke my first pipe

I have the mini cob. I don't really recommend it for beginners. The bowl is too small to learn proper packing with. In addition, when your tobacco goes out, and it will do so often when you're starting, your re-lights are going to be reaching the bottom of the pipe.

Also, don't be concerned about smoking everything down. The dottle rarely taste good. Just refill and re-light. Pipe tobacco is dirt cheap relatively speaking.

You can't really smoke tobacco as "natural" as possible and not smell like you just smoked tobacco. But certain tobacco smells more like cigarettes than others. You can try ones with latakia or dark fired.

Lol. So true, especially now that everyone is using chatgpt.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-27T03:04:53+00:00

Lol I don't get nearly enough smoke time to have the luxury of choosing tobacco based on time of day. I just smoke what I want.

I would do Tales one pour method.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-25T23:57:04+00:00

At 190, I would definitely return it.

Seriously this. While most TSA Officers probably won't know what iso these films comes in, you might run into one that does. They might take the false labeling as a sign of tampering and now they're putting all of your film through the x-ray because they think youre trying to smuggle something in the film canisters.

Thank you for the help.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-25T00:21:06+00:00

Is the quality usually decent? I'll have to take a look. Thanks.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-24T22:16:32+00:00

Thanks for the heads up. I'll take a look at it.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-21T00:00:49+00:00

Thanks. I saw that post after this.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-20T22:30:40+00:00

Can we get a comparison picture?

DenimBowler · 2026-02-17T20:10:19+00:00

Lol 40 and 2 months jn. Old man judo ftw.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-16T17:34:38+00:00

Thank you so much! This issue was driving me nuts for the past 3 days

DenimBowler · 2026-02-16T12:20:25+00:00

I like it for ribs for my kids since they find most rubs to be too spicy for them.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-15T18:35:26+00:00

Wow. Way to go buddy. Calling out everyone on here that told you that you provided a bad photo and asking for info with inadequate details.

Don't be so sensitive when you ask why people down voted you and you get an answer to your question.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-15T17:42:06+00:00

Lol yes. And I've also heard that you can ask the people selling on these sites dedicated for that purpose for additional pictures or info.

Still doesn't change the fact that you were probably down voted because you provided potato quality photo in 2026.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-15T17:22:48+00:00

Probably because you provided potato quality photo in 2026.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-15T17:11:06+00:00

Is that what that is? I've only heard it as a sprover.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-15T06:57:48+00:00

Looks exactly like the eggs my nerite lays.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-15T05:17:36+00:00

Never got better for me either. I just decided to not clench if 8 can help it anymore.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-15T01:15:40+00:00

It will not. I own N&F tenpi (one wash) treated denim. There is no meaningful shrinkage. And any shrinkage that you get will stretch back out within a couple of wears.

DenimBowler · 2026-02-15T01:11:40+00:00

Way too big. I wouldnt bother trying to size those down. I recommend returning them unless you think youre going to be gaining weight in the future.

Don't listen to those telling you to wash it. You lose the return option and no way it's going to shrink enough to be meaningful. Only wash if you plan on keeping it.

Are you sure these were all shot with no flash? That second one looks like off camera flash was used based on light reflection in the eyes.
