New Tobacco Pipes: Chacom

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. If there are some moist tobacco bites, remove it immediately with the pipe cleaner to avoid a bad smell.

Since the beginning of my journey into the beautiful and challenging world of pipe refurnishing, I am being faced with problem relating to glue. Maybe the hot temperate climate prevalent here is causing issues or the quality of glue itself is an issue. However notwithstanding the issues of glue, I was able to prepare a mixture of captain black tobacco CA superglue and activated charcoal and applied it to the surface. I set it aside to cure overnight.I began by sanding the repaired/ filled areas using a flat needle head. It was not as easy as it seemed because when I began the process, as I sanded down the stem, I observed that the filling crumbled and dislodged from hole.

The stem was very damaged with a bite through on the top side and much chewing around the edges of the stem. The bowl is very dirty with little room in the bowl – thick cake and lots of overflow on to the back side of the rim.I reamed the bowl with reamers. I cleaned the mortise, and the airway in the shank and stem with pipe cleaners and alcohol. You can see what the bowl looks like now in the next two photos. Using the syringe, I add the alcohol to the salt, topping it up to the bowl brim.
