This one was a fun Labor Day weekend project, squeezed in between lawn tasks and holiday events. The full restoration details are on the Reborn Pipes blog:

Below, some before & after pictures, a fairly simple restoration. Getting the factory stinger out of the tenon proved to be the biggest challenge. It definitely has the nicest Everyman stem I've yet seen. (nice rubber vs plasticky) It will be heading off to a forum members collection following the holiday.
