I have never sent out a pipe to be restored or repaired. I have always done my own restoring with results I am happy with and I (until now) have never needed a pipe repaired. After months of searching I found a Savinelli Goliath pipe that was in a shape that I like at a price I could afford. Well, the pipe came in and it must have been the previous owners favorite pipe because it was just awful with build up and the pipe was completely plugged. I worked the plug out then did a salt and alcohol treatment only to wake up the next morning to find a crack in the bowl had developed. I have not touched the pipe since.
The bowl is huge and the crack has not gone far down, and I am wanting to find someone who can top the bowl, put a bevel on the inside of the bowl, stain it to match and finish restoring the pipe. I am not sure who to use. Any suggestions?
