Late last week I ordered 3 pipes off the 'bay. There was no information about them and the pictures were terrible. But I had enough in my paypal account. The BIN price was 28.00 so I figured hell why not?
I buy the pipes that no one wants, and try to bring them back to life. As with my other restorations, there will be no museum pieces, but hopefully just a smokeable pipe.
Masochism? Maybe, but it gives me something to do, and keeps my brain going.
And In the spirit of Halloween, let's try to bring this pipe back to life.
I present you the LHS Sterncrest.
The sterling silver band:
For someone who beat the ever living crap out of his pipes, he sure had a gentle jaw. Or he never clenched his pipes, in between throwing it at the wall, leaving it outside, and using a torch lighter.
And here's the stinger, of which I've never seen the likes of before.
Here goes nothing!
