    PIPE CLEANING TOOL

    I was a piper at one time. I have seen some YouTube videos and pipe smoking has become very expensive. $40 t0 $60 is the cost of a tin of tobacco and a pipe can cost hundreds of dollars if you are looking for quality.

    Gravermeister oil choice

    J had my Gravermeister to GRS while I had a class there and had them check everything over. They put a tag on it that says use only ATF Dexron II or II non synthetic. That is what they suggest.

    Get some soft metal like copper and practice. Cutting copper is similar to cutting silver. You will soon discover what you are capable of cutting.

    Removing Barrels from the New Generation Colt Pythons?

Probably triggered by words like gun or rifle. Are others getting the same thing? Is Big Brother watching and deciding what is unsafe or...
