GBD 9438 Stem Repair (Tapestry)

[ssjones]

I suspect to have a new bit made, it would cost at least $50 and one other maker said he would charge around $70. That just isn't prudent on a pipe that cost $40. But, at least she lives to smoke another day. If it is like either of my older, GBD 9438 pipes, it should be a terrific smoker for the young man who is going to receive it.

Awesome job! I'd never thought about repairing a stem this way.
