Not your first repair job, my guess. Excellent work.

That's beyond my expectations Joe. It's an eBay pipe, I've yet to smoke. Very creative problem solving. As can be seen from the photos, Joe's work and skill are highly recommended.

In a message regarding the repair, I replied to go where the briar leads you and it went to a good place.

I agree with all the above. That's an amazing job you did there, Joe. You couldn't tell there was an issue with the pipe. It looks like it was made to be like that all along. As Dramatwist said...sheer artistry. Phenomenal.

Absolutely superb craftsmanship. I too think the pipe has more character with your brilliant restoration/repair.

Fired it up and smoking good. In person the repair looks Factory. Won this pipe on eBay several years ago and never got to smoke it. That has changed!
