    Stem's Tenon Diameter to Fit the Shank's Mortise Diameter?

    The new stem is a Churchwarden, so it won't fit in a vice for a lathe. I don't think I can get the shank in a vice either. It's curved. I don't know that I would trust "freehand" drilling. Looks like the the $80 adjustable turning tool is the solution. Seems like a lot to pay for a one-off...

    How Do I Make it Shiny?

    Yea, but I don't like the discoloration it gets from the dirt/oils in your hands. I want something to protect it from that.

    How Do I Make it Shiny?

    EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title (See Rule 9) My local shop has a pipe I really like and I'm thinking about buying it, but it is bare would, and I would like it to be shiny (maybe at least somewhat). Before I buy it, what kind of varnish/lacquer/urethane do I use?
