Never tap your pipe on a hard stuff that could create damages on the briarwood or even break the shank or the stem. Then, rest the pipe on a pipe stand for a day or as many days as your pipe rotation will allow before smoking again. Chacom really went to work creating memorable and exciting smoking pipes for the Jurrasic line. The stems on each pipe are white with darker, whispy coloring throughout. This gives off the impression of showing the smoke as it flows from the bowl into your mouth. The bowls all have shades of gray to them, with smooth or sandblasted finishes both available for your preference.
After curing, when I tried to file it down, I realized that shiny dots were visible. On close observation, these tiny dots were air pockets which were trapped during application and subsequent chacom tobacco pipes curing. I discussed with Mr. Steve who advised me to fill the spots with glue only. I did so and let it cure for 2 days.I sanded down the fill and realized bigger air pockets were now exposed.
By 1928 the London Chacom factory had begun completely making pipes in London and the supplies from St Claude were no longer required. Rather than closing the original factory the company was renamed Comoy (a combination of both names) in 1928. Shapes, chacom tobacco pipes ranges and grading remained the same between the two factories and Chacom was only sold in France, Switzerland and Belguim. The Chacom Reybert Pipe are small enough to pocket, which makes them the perfect smoking pipe for the workday or a long walk.
You may be smoking too fast or you use a poor-quality tobacco. Puff your pipe slowly and steadily to get a soft smoke without heating the pipe. The tobacco must be packed regularly to maintain a moderate puff and prevent the pipe from gurgling.
I usually leave this treatment in the bowl overnight.Step 2
I prefer to use my old trusty friend (pocket knife) to clean the cake from the bowl. It has a more rounded tip and I find it a perfect tool to clean out most pipes without damaging the bowl.Step 3
With the same alcohol I use cotton pads to remove the finish off the pipe. Alcohol also does a great job at removing tar from the bowl rim. I use these foam padded Micro-Mesh pads to bring out the best finish on the briar wood. Step 5
Two of my favourite household products that do a fantastic job at cleaning pipe stems are OxiClean and Vim.
Soak the stem in an OxiClean bath for about an hour maybe two hours. It will depend on how oxidized the pipe stem is, a heavy oxidized stem, leave in the solution for longer. Suffice to say that the consistency should be such that it should not be too runny but just sufficient to spread smoothly and evenly over the intended surface. First timers like me, do not worry too much, even I did not understand what should be the ideal consistency (LoL).
