    just found this and I'm in the "I wanna give it a try" mood... I'm thinkin about asking for a kind of starter set for Christmas... any input? I don't want it to be TOO expensive, but I don't want a corn cobb either...

    I suggest Baraccini for a beginner pipe I have 3 and they are my favorite. You can find good estate pipes on ebay.

    what is an "estate" pipe? is that a brand or is it from someone's estate?

    for sure... when I told my wife she laughed at me... "when did you turn 70?" but I let my haters be my motivators!

    Well there is a thing called a pipe retort.. which attaches to the stem and uses vaporized alcohol to absorb previous smokes. And a reamer will clean up the bowl. Some pretty good stuff out there if you google pipe retort or cleaning an estate pipe.. I usually look for one with minor caking in the bowl and few if any teeth marks on the stem... lots of folks buy expensive pipes but then don't smoke them so good bargains are available.
