okay, as a gag gift (but still functional) I wanna make an oom paul corn cob pipe. I will be starting the the Freehand cob bowl. I need a stem. I went to the log cabin site and found a lucite stem in the color i need. i can get it bent, but not sure if it will be bent enough for an oom paul. would i be able (theoretically) to further bend it a little? If so, how would I do that?

Cool project indeed! Looking forward to see the finished pipe as I developed a liking for Oom Pauls recently. I would start with a General because an Oom Paul needs a long and vertical bowl.
The main problem is the shank because it has to bend right after exiting the bowl and then has to run parallel to the bowl. The stem is easy, you just need to bend an already bent stem even more in hit water.

Good thinking, Maggie. When your husband screws it up you can blame him and guilt him into buying you an Oom Paul.
