Like the subject says, I bought a Boswell "Fatbelly" bent pipe around this time last year. It is one of my favorite pipes, but I shelved it for quite a while. I recently pulled it out to smoke it again, and the tennon just slides right out of the mortise. It is a hefty pipe, and the briar will fall right off if I tried to smoke it. I remember having an issue with it the last time I smoked it, and had to take the stem off during a smoke. I know I'm not supposed to do that, but Boswell's claims that it shouldn't be a problem. Should I just send the pipe in to Boswells and eat a $40 charge for a new stem?
