Looks like I should have been more careful. Time for a new stem, and a good time for a forever stem. This Legend is over a year old.  |

That sucks. You pay more in shipping than what the stem will cost you.

Or maybe go for free shipping? Lol I'm not sure how it happened. It was in the center counsel of my car. Maybe I set a different pipe in there that still had smoldering tobacco? Beats me |

Put a hole on the other side and it'll make a cool effect when you smoke it.

Looks like a job for electrical tape or better yet duct tape and or utility wrap. Cigarette cellophane melts into a good plastic repair as well.

I'm sure I'll just use electrical tape. I use that 💩 for everything. Hard telling how many pints of blood I've saved because of it.

I have a couple of spare unsmoked Legends that I could pull a stem from, but what's the fun in that? I also have a bent that is in roughly the same condition as this one.

If you haven’t bit the bullet on a forever stem do it! I have twelve cobs, all have forever stems and they make a cob really stand out. The draft holes are a bit small though, I would recommend drilling it out a size or two to prevent gurgling. Did these with mine and they are 👌

It's not a pressing matter, but I've wanted to pick up a forever stem anyway, this gives me good reason. Also, I'm loving my Diplomat more and more each smoke. |

You can buy a Forever stem, (I have 2) or 2 dozen Danish stems, which I like just as well.

We refer to these stems as Slim Style. There is a list on the right side of the 'Forever' Stems web page showing which MM Cobs they fit. 'Spear' Style Lucite Stems - 3 1/2 Inches We were finally able to get these 3 1/2 inch Spear stem blanks this summer. They add a real "Classy" look and feel to the larger filtered style MM Cobs, shown here on a Mark Twain. Very cool, both looking and smoking. I personally love 'em!
