Stanwell 51 Vario refurb

[woodrow]

I knew the issues, but for $40 a good deal. Very dirty pipe, a chipped stem, heat cracks and fissures in the bowl. I tried something new. I wanted the ovals on each side of the bowl to stand out. Rather than staining the entire pipe, I used a q-tip to paint light brown dye around the ovals. Added a thin layer of JB weld for the heat fissures. My progression so far ….

Starting to look amazing. Love the ovals.

If you are sure everything you added to your pipe is safe to smoke than you got a good deal.
