Gotta love asbestos.
Do you smoke it or is just kind of a collector thing?
asbestos is dangerous in one way. When it's broken particles get into the air and then go into the lungs and stay there. If you didn't bang or scrap up the pipe it would probably be safe.Not all asbestos is dangerous. And, graphite is perfectly safe... it just makes a horrible pipe.
Exactly right. I was amazed when my local school district started removing floor tiles containing asbestos in an "abatement" program. I went to them and tried to explain that if the tiles were intact, firmly adhered, and not broken it would be better to lay new floorcovering over them, as the removal process would create friable asbestos everywhere. I was told, "you don't understand..." (something that for some reason just pisses me off - as many times as I've hears it)asbestos is dangerous in one way.

Ahh, gotcha, would be cool to have though.Stock photos, wouldn't own them.
