Woohoo, pics fixed. That lil' Medico needs some TLC, but I see tons of potential under the loving use of its last owner. Nice score.
i didnt buy it yet, i cant get into my paypal for some reason. icant restore it as i dont know how
now someone will find it and outbid you...hurry up and get that Paypal account straightened out. 8O
This website provides more than enough information to the piper new to restoration. Careful though, it becomes as addicting as PAD and TAD.
no, the pipe. i know how to fix the paypal.i reset the password and it said technical difficulties
i bought it. not only did i get a good pipe for less then i got my not that good lucienne pipe, but i got 28 cents in ebay bucks! what a deal
It's pretty tough to ruin a pipe, in my limited restoration experience, it's pretty easy, if you don't mind using some elbow grease and patience. The right tools also help things along.
alrite, well i should be getting it soon. its shipping from texas, and i live in michigan. it hasnt been shiped out yet as i just bought it
That should make a good one for you. I've had a bunch of Medico and have a couple in rotation. They are a filter pipe but you don't have to use a filter.That appears to be a pretty old one. Stems appears to be vulcanite. A lot of Medicos made from the 1950's up had nylon stems which are quite soft and easily chewed. Medico does make a non briar pipe-the Brylons.
the ebay seller say its briar, but you cant trust them for sure.heres what they said-"Up for your consideration is a nice Medico Gold Crest Imported Briar tobacco estate pipe with 14k RGP band."
