Clay Pipes From Old Meerschaums

[fred]

This is an interesting topic, one that is not widely known and a treasured continuation of an old art form. Warner McCann is an Australian who makes a variety of Clay Pipes, including ones that he gets using old Meerschaums as templates. In addition, he is keeping the art of the puzzle Pipe going in these times. I thought that you guys might be interested in this, so I've started this thread.

Damn Fred. I bet it would be hell to get a cleaner through one of those puzzle pipes! :>)
Thanks for the info.

As tobacco pipes, they must be really good moisture condensers.

If I had one I think I'd just pour some alcohol thru it. I don't see any other way to deal with it.

Maybe even rig something with a can of compressed air.

They look like pipes that would appeal more to the pipe babes.

Thanks for the post, Fred.
