Take out John B Hayes he never made pipes
remove Ehrlichs pipe shop you already have G bushee
also Joe Giardino & Marty Silver former pipe repairmen
Some debate as to whether objects made by my estemed colleague
Paul Bonaquisti are smoking pipes or Door stops with connected
holes...
I thnk an answer to that question would be relevant as to his listing
here
MT
Hmm, for years now, I've wanted a pipe made by Mr. Bonaquisti. Now, I'll need
to reconsider. However, if Mr. Bonaquisti would care to send a pipe (perhaps a
magnum sized carved bulldog), I, as a professional pipesmoker (not much money
in this profession), could refute Mr, Tinsky's comments. ;-)
Charlie
Thank you,
Steven
Thanks Charlie... I was going to counter with a really sharp tongued response
to Mark's negative (and obvious jealously motivated) post, but just as I sat
down to type, I saw two Tinsky pipes that were in a recent estate I purchased.
The former owner had said, "you can have these, I was just going to throw them
out anyways".
Remembering his comments made realize that although it may have made me feel
good, a response to Mark's post wasn't really neccessary.

Thanks to all who have responded here or in email. I

Well, I didn't change Paul to a doorstop maker and
until Bear provides a link to an Ursine pipe that
does not cause my eyes to bleed he's not going on the

possibly a small addendum would could say:
" Paul Bonaquisti, historically most noted as a friend of Mark Tinsky
and John Eels. Provided them with excellent assitance and support
hauling briar bags and moving heavy machinery. Made some insignificant
contributions to pipe making and is principally noted, in that respect,
for having one of his pipes in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Where
it sits today propping open the front door...."

If you don't want those two Tinsky's, they are not to your standards, etc.

Due to a cyberglitch, the Usenet newsreader jumbled up Mark's original post.
Fortunatley, Mark copied me on the original, and here is what he intended to
say:
" Paul Bonaquisti, historically most noted as former friend of Mark Tinsky and
best friend of John Eells. Paul provided Mark with excellent assitance and
support during the week when Mark was a highly regarded pipemaker.
Taking advantage of his naivete, Mark feigned bad hips, and convinced Paul to
haul briar bags and move heavy machinery for him, all the while selling this
extremely trusting and talented pipemaker all of his cracked blocks at $50
each... telling him they were Corsican. Paul, who never *really* trusted Mark,
slipped these defective blocks back in to Mark's private stash, where he
happily used them, and due to poor quality control and liberal use of Plastic
Wood, never knew the difference.
Mark also promised that he would share with Paul all of his most guarded
pipemaking secrets... Of course, that didn't take long, and obviously none
were ever used.
Though Paul made some insignificant contributions to pipe making while hanging
around with Mark, once he realized how superiror he was in both intellect and
craftsmanship to his former friend, he struck out on his own, with the
encouragement of his good friend John Eells, and never looked back.
Mark, who is principally noted for his poor interpretations of Bonaquisti's
standard shapes, quickly faded in to oblivion, being devoid of Bonaquisti's
design and construction influence. In that respect, none of Mark's pipes are
in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, or any museum for that matter.
They are however known as a good untilitarian pipe, with about the same amount
of emotional attachment as a corn cob, and excellent for smoking such beloved
tobaccos as Condor, Erinmore, and Raspberry Supreme, or a mixture thereof."
There, glad to help!

Ok Nizo... can't argue with that one!
Damn...

When no one was looking, and believe me no one was even thinking
of looking, I filched the doorstop, I mean pipe, or to be more
exact, briar block with connected holes and a stem, and stuffed it
into the large greatpaocket of my jacket and fled the Met.
I heard muffled laughter behind me as I skedaddled, something like
" You think he took that ugly piece of..... " followed by more
and louder laughter!
Well I now have Maestro Bonaquistis Museum piece in my possesion and
so that no one laughs at it any more I m going to do some
"minor" touch up on it just to bring it up to snuff from the
hard practical use it s been put to.
So later today I will post on Today s work some before and
after shots. DONT MISS IT !

ROFLMAO! Mark, bless my buttons! I didn't know you possessed such an
excellent power of narrative! I, for one, LOVE these "cross the bow"
shots between you and Paul. Keeps me grinnin' <GGG>

The term door stop has only been used as a term to describe whatever it is that
comes out of Mark's shop. I mean, you can smoke them, but... don't beleive me?
Read my P & T article!

I am not sure what a "Eatpaocket" is. Did you bring sandwiches for the 2 week

They were laughing, because they thought you stole the Tinsky that Nizo hid for
you.

So after spending all nite on the plane I set to work today to work on

I think someone else posted a little while back that he was
found;might check google. I forgot where they said he w as now but he
is alive as is Mike Kabik. There was a rumor that he passed away .
But I just spoke with him and going to get his story and that of

Catch your breath?!? I would have prefered to catch the tea as it shot
out of my nose and mouth onto the computer screen. I was OK until I
scrolled down the photo a the bottom, then it was my imitation of Old
Faithful. I'm wiping my eyes and the screen. ROTF!!
(Things to keep by the computer: Windex, paper towels, Shop-Vac)
