Show off Your Corn Cobs Here!

Here's my Dad's old cob. I estimate it is about 60 years old. I did a deep clean on it because it was pretty sour. Cake removed, scrub internals, polish that brass ring a bit, and get the oxidation off the stem was enough to get a sweet smoking pipe. Enjoying a bowl of semois!

Along with the info, That's possibly the greatest corncob pipe ive ever seen!

Thank-you. I'm happy with it after some spit and polish. Only took the stem to 1800-grit and called it good enough. I'm dedicating it to burleys that tend to smoke a little hot. The large bowl and long stem seems to help cool them off.

I really enjoy smoking cob pipes and I also enjoy modifying them in some way. Over the past few years I done a couple that I thought really turned out well. The one below is one of those. Finished it off a few weeks back and it smoked well.

Just posting these pics. Been trying to read through different threads and this one was on today’s list. Since taking these photos I’ve put the other forever stem on the legend and it works well. They both do.

My new MM Blue Diamond I've never seen a cob shaped like this so I had to get one, pretty good smoker.

Forgive me if this isn't the right place for this question. I'm a brand new piper. My first pipe is a MM Legend and I just bought a MacArthur Cob. I love it. Not sure I can explain it but it smokes the best of my (small sampling) pipes. Does anyone make a stand specific to the MacArthur? It doesn't fit in a normal stand and hard to balance standing on its own. I'd hate for it to get damaged falling over. Thanks!

Here are the ones I still have. Quite a few went to my son - and when he passed I gave them to his pipe smoking friends. Still, these should be enough to get me through.

It’s missing the “collar” (?) but it was my great-grandfather’s. Smokes just fine, and required no cleaning compared to the multitude of briars he had. I don’t think the man cleaned them very often if at all, frankly.
