Metal Pipe

[didimauw]

I got this pipe from my friend a long time ago. It was his grandpas. I have no idea what kind it is, but I do know that I need to clean it badly. I'm not sure what he smoked out of it, if you know what I mean. Does any one know where I can find a new mouthpiece for it?
I also want to buy a couple new bowls for it.
What about cleaning up the metal?


Sorry about the size

Alcohol should loosen that gunk well enough. Can probably find bowls on eBay, though you'll probably have to spring for the whole pipe.

I would post a few more pictures. One of the bottom of the bowl and a closeup of the threads on the bowl. You may find that some of us have bowls laying around in the junk drawer from who knows where. Bowls do show up on ebay from time to time as well but it is hit or miss on the fit.
I doubt you can find a bit exactly like the original but any pipe repair person should be able to hook you up with a replacement bit. I would think around $10 and your set.
Cleaning requires a toothbrush, toothpicks and some sort of cleaning substance. Most of those old metal pipes are just an aluminum enamel sort of finish that will come off if you go at it hard with grit.
