What Impatience Nets Your Return

Well, I bought this estate Pipe. Received it yesterday. Upon unpacking I dropped it and broke the threaded tenon inside the shaft and stem. I was going to have one of the Pipe makers from our Pipe club fix it for me. However, I got impatient and tried to remove it myself. This was my net return for impatience and inexperience.

    That makes me feel a whole lot better about my tenon replacement project, well, a little better maybe

    A little dirt never hurt

    I hate that for your. I broke the shank of a meer by replacing the stem and not noticing the push pull connector in the shank was too small and should have been changed.

    I glued the shank and still use the pipe.

    Just smooth over that shank and make a nose-warmer out of it.
