    Sodium Silicate And Mortises

    It’s a mild adhesive, I wouldn’t put it in a mortise. That’s a good way to lock up a stem. Plus coating the inside of a mortise will reduce its inside diameter making it tighter. Seems like a bad idea to me.

    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2024?***

    RLP-6 in a Digby pot that a relative put a City Deluxe stem on. The stem fit so well I’ve just left it. Besides, I like twin-bore.

    Interesting Completed Ebay Auctions - British Pipes

    Damn that sucks, but… It has been discussed ad nauseam around here that 100% of pipes sent global shipping from GB will be confiscated without fail.

    Is that an "export" model? I wouldn't put to much stock in the funneled tenon. I know nearly every pipe I've ever sold has had a funneled tenon and none of them came to me that way.
