    French Oom Paul Project

    Thanks, I didn't know how to phrase that. Multiple drills and the small one on top of the draft hole went slightly deep to create a divot. I don't think that is unusual on a deeply bent pipe.

    French Oom Paul Project

    Try a heavier piece of solid core wire, something is likely just stuck in there.

    You can't get a cleaner thru the draft hole, marked here in red?

    Comoys - Transplant a C drilled Stem Logo

    Somehow, searching for Comoy's on Facebook, I found Neil Archer Roans old Passion for Pipes blog page. I thought this was defuct, but I can open some pages using the permalinks. I found his blog entry where Adam Davidson recreates the C. I'm not sure if this link will work...

    Lions Head (Comoys) 256 Author Restoration

    Sure Guildhalls are great values, the stem work isn't quite Comoys level, but more than adequate.

    Custom Pipe Tampers: A Hidden Gift

    Lions Head (Comoys) 256 Author Restoration

    A member here sold me this Lions Head 256 via eBay. I'm a big fan of the rare and highly sought after shape 256. First line Comoy's became too expensive to keep, and I sold my Old Bruyere a few years ago. So this is a nice replacement, I won't mind smoking. I don't find this shape in any...
