Fell in love with these 2. I have a bunch of common Savinelli, Peterson, etc. But I love these older pipes, and every year they seem to get harder to find in good condition without breaking the bank. The grain on older pipes, or wood in general Is really hard to beat. I did spent a solid hour every night cleaning the Perspex. Soak them mild soapy water, soft scrub and pipe cleaners in drill bit, over and over again. Lather rinse repeat.

Those stems came out great!

@ssjones posted once about cleaning those Perspex stems, they can be tricky as they show everything you miss.

Nice, Virgin and New Era are two steps above New Standard. They all smoke the same, but definitely nicer briar! Good job on the Perspex clean up. A bristle cleaner dumped in alcohol works well, just rinse with water and dry immediately after, to keep the clear plastic from hazing.

Thanks . I wasn’t sure about the alcohol. Now I know. I believe the pipes say for a long, long time. The stains were brutally set in there. Honestly I was getting so pissed I almost went to carb cleaner. Lol.
