Thanks a lot, I appreciate.

That's a good idea, I'll definitely keep that in mind if I should ever get a really loose fitting pipe. Thanks!Did you ever try the boiling water and press-method? Put the tenon in boiling hot water for a minute or so. Then press it on the tabletop in right angle. Repeat if necessary until the right fit. It will compress the tenon a little bit and make it wider as far as it’s made of acryl or ebonite. Be careful not to overdo this, otherwise it may crack the shank. Repaired twice a loose fit with that, cracked a fine line in one.
I will start smoking the Holmes / Watson set and all of my other pipes soon. They have been resting quite a whileC'mon brother, show a little love to that Holmes and Watson set. I love the adventures of the Altinay, but I feel for that lonely pair of pipes.
That's a nice Grabow!Presbyterian Mixture in Dr. Grabow
