I would probably buy a new stem for the bowl. Like these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-3pcs-Ebonite-vulcanizates-mouthpieces-Stem-For-Tobacco-Smoking-pipe-Fzui01-/131703816645

Its more sanitary that way anyway.

>>1060068
you could most likely remove the broken stem part from the bowl with a stud extractor then either glue the extracted part back on the stem or better still just buy a new stem, as stated it will be more sanitary, if you have no intention of actually smoking the pipe then gluing the stem back together will suffice I guess, personally I would just buy a new stem either way.

I suppose I shall just buy a new stem. I was thinking of a churchwarden stem since they look neat.

>>1060105
Lmao, I've done basically this before.

A pipe general is probably a little bit too specific.
Anyways I'm going to post my pipes.
This one I made a year ago as a gift for a friend after we started smoking pipe just recently.
The chamber is fuckhuge so it tends to get a little hot if you don't smoke it slowly, but you can really feel like a steamtrain with it.

>I'm retarded and can't upload photos durr

Anyway. This one here is my newest but for some reason I can't find a pic with the finished product. Not that it has much of a finish since I tend to just oil them and thats it.

And finally my wip. A pipe made from alabaster.
I don't know yet how it will turn out and if it is even usable.

>>1060068
do you also like to smoke the leather pipe, OP?

>>1061381
You mean the cock?

>>1060068
Why can't you just clean everything with alcohol, brush the edges a little and glue it all with epoxy or something?

whats the best way to actually get into this
i dont exactly have the ability to use many power tools so i started trying to whittle one.
puts a huge strain on my already fucked hands, any advice would be rather appreciated

Unsmoked amber looks like that if I member correctly.

>>1062243
>>1062238
ah, i found out what it is

its a meerschaum pipe

"a soft white claylike material consisting of hydrated magnesium silicate, found chiefly in Turkey."

and yes you were right, an amber stem.

>>1062246
Nice! I have a meerschaum pipe as well and love it. Supposedly that material is used for a better cleaner smoke.

Did some cleaning and fixing

Is there any reason why someone would get into this hobby but doesn't smoke tobacco? Apart from weed what else do you smoke out of them?

>>1063924
Potsmokers are so trashy

>>1063951
Whats it made from breh

>>1060108
Chrurchwarden stems are great. The smoke gets cooler the longer the stem, so you don't get toungebite as easily.
