Less opinions, more facts, no politics on Pipe/Cigar Content.
I'm Johnny, i don't like needless fluff in videos, unless absolutely called for. Some videos will be deeper dives and those are going to have the extra stuff not everyone wants. Others are going to be very utilitarian videos that will hit directly to the root of an issue, education on how to cut a cigar, how to pack a pipe, how to clean a pipe, etc...

Shameless plug for my Whittling channel,@JohnnyTheLayton
I just uploaded a cut by cut whittling tutorial for these Ravens. If you've got a sharp pocket knife and an inkling to try something new, its a beginners tutorial.

James Upshall pipes made me a true believer that a pipe isnt just a pipe. Some artisans craft a pipe that just, simply smokes better than any other that you may have. Some artisans reliably make pipes like that. So the thought that any old pipe will do, has been thrown so very far out of the window for me. This piece of briar can rival the coolness of a Meerschaum pipe, and i cant explain why.
The experience i have had with this pipe, is akin to a love affair. I look at her out of the corner of my eye and smirk.

Having the time of my life at the Caricature Carvers of America event at Stevens Point in Wisconsin. Tomorrow is the last day of the show, if you're in the area, i'm gonna smoke a pipe at noon right out in front of the convention center at the Holiday Inn here in front of the show! Come down and say hi!

Making YouTube videos is always fun for me. I like the research aspect, figuring out what needs to be said. I write it all up, then I discard half of it because I want it to sound natural & I talk to the camera like someone is sitting across from me.
I always hope it comes out well, but honestly, I have such a blast doing it, then editing and putting in all the extras here and there.. 😆 🤣
I like to think I'd do it even if no one watched.
Tomorrow morning, i'll have a good video up on Tongue bite, causes, and solutions.

A bones brandy. Fun little pipe that easily fits into a pocket, and its a 9mm filtered pipe, so bonus! Leather zippo case. And a Vintage tamper. +Vintage remington pocket knife from the 60-80 years ago. Hard to place how old it is reliably. Its either early 40's or late 50's i think.
Watch is a vintage Raketa, mechanical and fun. Hank of course is from kimagi.

Working on a Meerschaum coloring video to document that 30day challenge i did with this pipe. Doing a video like this is akin to writing an essay/preparing a speech . Figuring out what i want to say, what the wrong things to say are so I can ensure I word things right and dont say anything to mislead folks.
Its a bit of a responsibility when so many folks watch a video and trust you to be 100% honest with them. I take it seriously, and its something I enjoy doing.
This topic is contentious too. Folks have been arguing about coloring Meerschaum pipes for over a century. I'm not going to prove or disprove anything, all I can do is show what I did, & what the result were, while being mindful to not make claims i cant back up.
At any rate, i'm recording right now and going through the process, but i just wanted to say, thanks for trusting me. I take that trust seriously.

We all have an impact in one way or another. Well, after the success of my Pipe Smoking 101 video, and the way it really showcased a particular pipe and my love for it. The folks at MBSD Pipes have been inundated with requests for a Meerschaum Poker to such an extent that they've named the line of pipes "The Whittler" in homage to me.
That's more than a little bit humbling.
They're going up now on MBSD's site, they got 20 of them in, and are posting 10 up tonight. So, if you're really wanting to get one of them, now's your chance.
