“Pipe by Lee” Bent Apple Cleanup

[Parsimonious Piper]

Got this one in rough condition. Stem badly oxidized, bowl in desperate need of reaming, etc.



A long OxyClean soak and much sanding/micro mesh, reaming and rim scrubbing later…

Seeing the finished product makes me want to get another "project" pipe. Nice work on the cleanup.

Outstanding reclamation..."A swan from an ugly duckling."

Did it all by hand?

Yeah, I don’t have any power tools.

Ran some OJK through it this morning. Open draw, no gurgle, no ghosts. Like all my Lees so far, a good smoker. A bit small, so it won’t be a regular, but when I want a shorter smoke, it’ll fit the bill.
