The moral of this story is: don't let Jim Beam hold your pipe while you're grilling on the patio.

Johnnie Walker would never drop a briar, brother. :-)

I feel for you, Jerry.

Looks like it was a Beautiful pipe Jerry. Sorry for your Loss. I have to admit I busted a Kaywoodie in 3rds along the shank. after a little work I still smoke it a couple of times a week.

:-):-) It was but a $15 ebay no-name Italian briar, but it was my dedicated English pipe. Oh well, back to cobs. Especially while partaking... I think I can fix it if I can get longer staples.

That's God's way of telling you that you shouldn't smoke latakia.

But he's cool with drinking, right? :-)

Whew!

Problem solved. A little bailing wire, duct tape and TLC and I'm back in business.

Frank N Pipe there lol... how does it smoke?..

Anyway really not that I would repair and charge someone for such the repair I did on my pipe but I have had it smoking this way for a few years now. I smoke as much as 3 bowls a day in this pipe and haven't had a problem....
However this month I did buy a pipe ok a few Grabows to add to my little collection of Dr. Grabow that is right now 37, would have been 40 but passed 3 on to another. Well this last 8 I bought 6 of them are different shape wire carved Belvi's and one of them just happens to be like my Keywoodie, same shape and good smoker, so I may smoke the KW only a couple times a week now and let it have some rest.

My dear Colonel - don't be so humble - that is now a work of ART. Not quite steampunk - more like "nouveau blue collar".

It's , er, um, "nice".

This is great! Kinda steampunk!

Great repair job, Jerry. You can hardly tell that it was fixed. :-)
[Reply]

That's not Steampunk, that's DEVO! :-)
