    I picked up my Sultan meerschaum as an estate pipe. I dropped it on the garage floor a few years ago and unknowingly cracked the tenon part of the stem. The tenon eventually broke off and I purchased a replacement stem, which didn't quite match the diameter of the shank. After a while I ordered a nice replacement stem on eBay, but didn't check the size of the connectors and I cracked the shank. I was able to repair it with superglue and use the original fitting and everything is fine now, but I wish I had paid closer attention when I replaced the stem the second time.

    I'm participating in March Meerschaum Madness, meer pipes are light and appear fragile, but they're tougher than they look, given reasonable care.

    Is there a trend of dropping meers, Chris. I would bet if you dropped briars instead, they would break less.
