Stuck Falcon pipe bowl

[kemuri]

I recently purchased a Falcon pipe (not used one) and was able to remove the bowl when cleaning the pipe.
But now the bowl is stuck tightly, and I can't remove it.
Does anybody know how to remove a stuck bowl?
I've tried...
1) hitting the bowl lightly with a rubber hammer
2) putting the whole pipe in the fridge (assuming aluminum thread would shrink)
3) a jar lid opener
but no luck.
TIA

Did you get the bowl wet while cleaning? Maybe it swelled a bit. Try leaving it sit, and not smoking it for a few days and try again.

Did you some how cross thread it putting it back on? That could be bad, very bad...

Toss it in the freezer for a bit.

I'm sorry. A stuck pipe is no laughing matter, but I can't stop laughing at the number 1 response having been to hit the bowl with a rubber hammer. I really hope you get this fixed. The freezer is better than the fridge.
