Here is a 1904 Peterson Meer Stummel that I was gifted from a very generous and kind Forum member.
I sent the Stummel to my favorite carver after discussing the restemming.
Because I’m an idiot I couldn’t decide on just one stem color and shape so I had three stems made.
In addition to the stems being made the Stummel was fractured and couldn’t undergo the casual yet brutal treatment I bestow on my pipes.
Ryan reinforced the Stummel with a combo of epoxy, delrin, stainless steel and ebonite. A true master.
