  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Pipe car kit?

Just following up on this, did you end up getting it from Santa? If so, how do you like it?

I still haven't pulled the trigger on something. It's between this and Clint's @cgraunke Fatty recommendation. The black version is growing on me.
I did get one. I like it a lot. I will work on getting some pictures up tonight.

Ok here we go. @StogieJim

Here it is with all the stuff that I put in it laid out where I put it. For size refrence the box of matches is just a typical standard size box and pipe cleaners are also standard.


Here is the flannel side where the pipe goes. I also put my matches in there. This isn't a large pipe, but I can fit my bigger pipe in there.



This is the big pocket that is not lined.


Here it is with all the stuff in it all closed up.


And here is a shot to show how thick it is all rolled up with all the stuff in it. The match box is again just a standard match box and it is resting on the pipe roll itself.

Thanks so much for taking the time to take these pictures. I think I'm definitely sold on this now, this is perfect for the quick car trip (40ish minutes round trip) I like that it fits the essentials and only the essentials. Also where did you get nice baggies like that? When I leave the house, I'm working with larger sandwich bags. And that leather holder for your pipe tool? Really cool!

Really nice looking pipe btw.

I think I'm going to order this AND the Maxpedition that Clint suggested as well for longer trips out of the house. I have a work conference next month and that Maxpedition fatty looks to be perfect for that 4 day getaway.

Thank you again.

No problem, glad to do it. The baggie and the leather thing we're both actually given to me, so I don't actually know where to buy either. Sorry. I like that if I only take couple bowls worth if baccy this set up fits easily in a jacket pocket.

Yea that's exactly what I'm looking for in a smaller pouch, one I can just throw in a jacket pocket. I'm ordering this right now actually.

Thanks again.
