    Preferred Method for Waxing Meerschaum Pipes

    I use the yellow bees wax. I melt it in a small dedicated pot and apply it with a soft paint brush(don't want to scratch the pipe).

    First Pipe From Pipestud.

    Help... Coloring My New Meerschaum

    In my opinion, most of the coloring is caused by moisture. I have over a dozen meers and have always read that oily tobaccos like Latakia are best for coloring. If that were true, the coloring would begin at the bottom of the bowl and not the stem. With quality block meers, the coloring starts...

    "Who is John Galt?"

    Nice to see so many Libertarians here on this forum. I hope that you are registered to vote as such as well. It's all about taking responsibility for one's actions.
