My Granddad smoked Blend Of The Month.?Spilman Mixture, a restoration blend made to show us what our granddads smoked, in a C&D/MM cob collaboration nose warmer with a tomato red stem. This is a mild but interesting blend.
Solution. Finishing nail, tack hammer, & a ton of patience.Westminster in a Peterson bent Rhodesian. This is one of my favorite pipes and I haven't smoked it in a year because the stem is clogged to hell and I can't unclog it. I took the stem out of another Peterson pipe and put it in this one. Problem temporarily solved.
