Savinelli Balsa Filter ?

One of my first pipes I ever purchased is a Savinelli Duca Carlo bent billiard. I didn't realize it was a balsa filter pipe when I bought it. I used the filters for a few weeks and didn't care for them so I ditched them several years ago. The pipe was the worst pipe I've ever broken in but persisten...

OH NO! The Dreaded Pipe Drop

I'd say you just gave it a bit more character.

Life’s Humbling Moments

Spending 8 days in the hospital with pancreatitis will humble a man. I now know from personal experience. Was that the same hospital that you work at? Because that would be humbling. I used to work there about 20 years ago. I'm no longer working for a hospital these days though. I went to the dark ...

The Saddest Songs You've Ever Heard

Johnny Cash's version of Hurt that FredS posted has to be my all-time saddest song.

The Gearhead Thread

I'm still working on the Vanguard Twin V, and began to change the oil yesterday, and I'm still trying to remove the old oil filter; it seems welded on. I've tried all of the various wrenches and tools, and today bought one of the strap tools that use a 1/2" breaking bar, and actually ripped th...

The Gearhead Thread

This vent tube from the carb to the atmosphere appears to be plugged intentionally. If so, why? (BTW, the engine is a Vanguard Twin-V 35 HP). IMG_20231001_174516505Resized.jpg IMG_20231001_174543141Resized.jpg My first thought is that you don't want unfiltered air to enter into your carburetor whic...

Nice smoke till I got a late night visit...

Reminds me of an old park ranger that used to work the night patrol at the local state park I worked at when I was a teenager. His name was Blue John. I don't think that was his given name but that's what everyone called him. He had to be in his 70's or 80's. He was a man of few words and when he di...
