Luckily it doesn't look more than superficial and hopefully won't affect the smoke, but I'm a little curious if there's a way to make that go away or ignore it. I'll admit I was probably smoking the poor thing too hot, but didn't notice till it was too late as I try not to touch the bowl l, lest I mess up the beeswax and coloring. You gents have any advice or is the poor thing eventually doomed?
