    Pipe Mud Question

    I’ve used JB Weld on motorcycles. I would never have thought about using it on pipes. So, do you just put a coat of epoxy in the bowl, then “season/break in” the pipe with the mud?

    Pipe Mud Question

    I’ve seen their product and it looks interesting. I have several Missouri meerschaums, one probably 40 years old that I primarily used when backpacking. It still smokes well!

    Pipe Mud Question

    I have a new pipe that I wasn’t careful enough breaking in, and have a burnout divot in the bottom of the bowl. I have read the thread on pipe cement using hardwood ash rather than cigar ash. After reading that, I am thinking about using ash from my Green Egg smoker to make pipe cement. The...
