Well I have have not had much luck with my "good" pipes lately. Yesterday morning getting ready for work, I put my 305 in a canvas shaving bag with a few baggies of samples and a 4oz jelly jar of McClelland Blackwoods Flake. Somehow in the fuss of the morning the bag tumbled off of the countertop. When I got to work I took the pipe out and examined it. It was to my heartbreak that I saw the hairline crack in the bowl. This is the second pipe in two weeks that my hurriedness and careless have damaged. Maybe its a wake up call to not get into a rush and slow down a little more. I have been trying but mornings always seem a bit rushed for me.
Anyway the pipe it still smokable. I did take about a 1/32 off the crown to try to sand away the crack. But it's still there. The crack is too small to glue or epoxy. I just don't want it to get any worse. Any suggestions as far as repair or should I just smoke it and try to forget about it?
