I bought a Big Ben Pipa in an estate sale about a year ago. I haven't smoked it yet, but before I do, I have a question: Does the stem separate from the pipe? Mine seems frozen, and I don't want to force the issue and break it. Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan

Leave it in the fridge overnight, and then try to remove the stem. Another tip, rubbing the tenon (the part of the stem that goes into the pipe) on a bar of Ivory soap when you put it back in, will make it's insertion/removal easier in the future
