    What is it?

    Hi My grandparents in Illinois had this, Dad said it was a water heater. I would have thought a water heater would have a spigot. I don't think that the grate / grill in the bottom or the soldering iron go with it. Thanks Mike

    Weiss Barber Supply

    Hi I was looking at various Mustache Wax on the internet and found Weiss Barber Supply on Walnut Street in Wichita KS on an English website. Apparently, I'm not the only person that found them this way. Weiss is a nice place to shop, the owners are very friendly and I got to get a sniff of...

    The Perfect CUSTOM Safari Hat

    Hi There are a couple of threads concerning the "perfect safari hat" and they are mainly about Akubras. My British WW2 bush hat was in the rain, and shrunk too much to wear. It's wool, so I don't think I can re-shape, or re-block it. Well, I can do it once, but it will eventually need it...

    Not exactly Traditional Campaign Hat

    Hi I want to get a non-traditional Campaign hat. In short, I don't want to go with an Olive Montana Peaked hat with a completely flat brim because I already have one. I don't plan on wearing this hat every day, therefore I don't want to blow the bucks to have Hatman Jack to make me a 50%...

    HOYO DE MONTERREY EXCALIBUR MINIATURES EMS CIGARILLO

    Hi I bought an unopened box of these (HOYO DE MONTERREY EXCALIBUR MINIATURES EMS CIGARILLO). They're only good for say 5-6 puffs and you're done. Does anyone use a holder for cigarillos? Fine, and mild, but tiny. Just an update, I stopped by the local (and probably the best) cigar store and...

    Limoncello

    Hi I love Gin and Tonic's, I love the lime flavor, the kind of sour tonic, etc. I like Pink Lemonade, freshly squeezed lemonade, and Mountain Dew. I also haven't finished my first (and only) bottle of Limoncello. I SHOULD love this stuff. Anybody drink this stuff (besides Danny DeVito)...
