What to Do with Old Broken Pipes…

[Zamora]

So many codgers would just throw their broken pipes away, it's remarkable he kept so many around.

As far as I know he never threw away any pipes.

Wow the last picture just wow. Better than anything I could have imagined from your initial paragraph. It looks like a Montblanc! The thought just occurred to me for the bowls, how about salt and pepper shakers?

 

[thepipesman]

Another idea for the bowls: maybe a bird feeder of sorts. They could hold seeds, you could stack them up alternating on Christmas tree shaped wire or wooden frame, or along a single row. You could put little dowels out for the birds to perch on.

Or maybe fasten them to a small square base and use them in your cars center console to hold quarters for parking meters. You could glue the top of the pipe to the square wooden base, and saw off the bottom of the pipe with the broken stem. It would probably hold about 2 bucks of quarters.
