Purchases From Ebay This Month!

[deleon]

Won these two on ebay, this month and did some restoration on the Hard Castle pipe. The Stanwell needed very little cleaning. Both are wonderful smokers, already took them to the beach for a weekend getaway and they're staying in my travel case for the next trip.

Great pipes. Cant beat a good Ebay deal. Love the bulldog like everyone else. Glad you got to enjoy them on a relaxing getaway, may there be many more! Cheers!

@samcoffeeman I boiled it in alcohol to remove the left over tobacco from the reaming process then lightly sanded the pipe with 400 & 800 grit to remove any little marks. One coat of mahogany sanded that down then add some brown, then on to the buffer.

I don't own a bulldog, but your restoration has made me envious!
Your work is exemplary.
