Thank you so much for all your tips and tricks, good sir.
Your videos have helped me bring a few pipes back to life, with many more to come. I just need to buy a buffing machine to polish stems and bowls. I appreciate all that you share!
Nice job! It's kind of rewarding to salvage a vintage old smoker. I have a shape 656 from 1954. I had a replacement stem made for it by Ed Shulte. (R.I.P.)
