Need help with a Falcon

[bailey331]

I just got a Falcon pipe off eBay for next to nothing. Now I know why. Its missing the aluminum stem that runs between the mouth piece and the bowl base. It look like the missing tube would be about 3 1/2 to 4 inches long. Anyone have ideas on how to repair or find a replacement. I have a few pictures but couldnt even figure out how to link them to this thread.

:laughat: Did you read the entire ebay post? I am unsure about replacements for that.

Falcons can but should not be taken apart, just the bowl. I have 6 of them and saw the one You got on ebay but passed when I saw the tube gone. I never saw a place to get parts just new bowls and full stems.

The ebay post didnt point out the missing tube only that he got a large number of pipes from an estate sale. A friend noticed the missing tube in the picture but I had already made a bid. Maybe a trip to lowes and I can find something that might fit huh.

You could make one out of aluminum tubing it actually looks pretty simple. Then you would have 2.

A lot of hobby/craft stores carry small diameter aluminum or brass tubing. Especially hobby shops that cater to RC aircraft. I have seen tubing similar in size to a falcon stem there. Its just plain with no spiral or anything.
