A Pipe Refurbisher’s Reflections

Welcome to reborn pipes! This blog is a place to post my reflections on pipes and tobaccos and on the art of refurbishing old pipes. I love working on old pipes and giving them a renewed life. Over the years I have developed a variety of methods that have worked well for me in my hobby of pipe refurbishing. I share them with you because I enjoy sharing information and knowledge I have learned with others. I have written a lot of different articles on the many aspects of the refurbishing work. It seems like it is a good idea to post them in one place that was a bit more permanent and localized. As I learn new methods and try new things I will add them to the blog. I also will share the result of the labour so that you can see what the finished products look like. The methods work for me. Try them if you like but be sure to post your results here if you wish to share them with others.

I have also invited others to write different blog posts on the topics where they have interest and willingness. Thank you to them for sharing their knowledge and skills. If you would like to write something for the blog just email me and let me know (slaug@uniserve.com)

Since I enjoy writing essays and short stories, I have also included some of each in various categories of the blog. These include pieces that have appeared elsewhere and some that appear here for the first time. I have also added a category on book reviews of pipe books that I have found helpful or just enjoyed when I read them.

Once again welcome to reborn pipes. Leave a comment if you read something helpful or if you wish to add to what is written. Share your ideas and additions. Most of all enjoy yourself here.

    Hi, just subscribed via The Old Reader to your rss, it doesn’t show any image, just a bit of text, maybe consider setting “featured image” or something like that when writing?
    Thank you and best regards!

    Hello Reborn Pipes- I have recently rediscovered my fondness for pipe smoking. And since I am also a tinker, re-builder of many a hobby item, I have delightfully discovered your site and artistry and help at least improve pipe that I come across.

    I try to emulate your technique as best I can on ebay finds as it increases what I buy with my pipe budget by allowing me to buy pipes in need of love at lower prices.

    My question is : Do you buy already capped charcoal powder to repair stems with or do you “manufacturer” and cap you own? Would you feel OK sharing that small tidbit?

    Thanks

    Steve,
    I’ve been enjoying the pipe I bought from you as well as your blog. I have a question, I bought a cheep Kaywoodie on ebay that has an orange&black textured bowl that was way to shiny, looked like plastic. I didn’t like it so i sanded it down and now i love the flat look and feel. To keep the flat look, what do you recommend to finish it with or would you just leave it unfinished?
    Thanks, Aj

      1. Arnold Blum

        Yes, it still has the orange and black pattern, with the flat unfinished texture. I had read not to use clearcoat on briar so just wanted your take on it. I will leave it be, Thanks for the advice. Aj

          Aj sometimes to add a little life to the bowl I will rub it down with a light coat of olive oil and rub it off. It does not add shine once it dries just depth to the bowl. I like the oiled look a lot and use it on many of my pipes.

    I have a la strada stacatto very similar to the one you worked on. The pipe stem is chipped at the mouth piece and I wanted to know if it could be repaired or replaced. Let me know what you think.

            I am a pipe smoker with about 45 serviceable “friends that are still standing.” The balance, of approx 45 also, have mostly stems missing that I stuck back in a box over the years awaiting that day that they are REBORN… I tend to have a pipe hanging from my teeth 18 hrs a day while I work. I forget that it’s there and will mumble some words that end up releasing my buds to break off the stems when hitting floor/street/sidewalk/river bank, et al.

            Can I ship to you to work on at your leisure or is there some repository that harbors a stockpile of plain Jane shanks? I am 74 and would like to finish this project up while I am still vertical.

    Steve, I have a quick question. It’s driving me crazy.

    We all know not to round the edges where the stem meets the shank when sanding, so the juncture remains smooth. But I’m having problems.

    When I sand my stems and run through the micromesh, the juncture is never the same. I’ve tried doing it with the stem attached to the pipe obviously, but Just enough vulcanite is removed to create that tiny unwanted lip. Aside from just not sanding that area of the stem altogether, I don’t know how to resolve this.

    And how to fix the couple of pipes I’ve created this issue on. The lip is indeed microscopic, but it’s definitely there, and didn’t used to be in any the cases. Any advice would be appreciated.

    Reply ↓
      1. JoeRiggs

        You mean sand right over the tape? Trying to understand. I tape off my shank, then I sand the stem carefully right up to the shank without going over onto the shank.

        The stem always comes out microscopically smaller than it was before, creating the lip. Are you saying to tape the shank, then sand right over the juncture as if I was sanding both together.

    Hey Steve, Boris here… again 🙂

    One quick question, if you have time. Do you have any advice on restoring stem stamp? It is still embossed, but the paint’s gone. Paint markers aren’t any good. How do you do it?

    Thanks

    Hey Steve. Been folowing you blog for quite some time now, and this is the first time I actually have a question.
    It is about CA super glue you are using to repair mouthpiece buttons (mainly). I’ve read in one of your restorations that you have found an info somewhere that CA is not dangerous when completely cured. Does that apply to that exact CA you are using, or is it some general study?
    Could I have some info, maybe some links if you still have them?
    I have couple of pipes with the button ends all clipped off for some unknown reason, and I’m very weary of using CA for something that would get reasonably hot, and would go straight into my mouth.

    Thanks!

      Thanks Boris for your message. I have been using the CA and charcoal powder mixture on stem repairs for about 5 years now. In the early days i was concerned so I searched the web. I don’t have the links any longer. But I remember reading that CA was used in Vietnam for quick wound repair. It was used on the skin to bind wounds together. I also read that it was used in the US for the same. I also read that once it hardened it was impervious to gassing or releasing compounds.

      1. Boris Vezmar

        Hey Steve. Thanks for the prompt reply!
        I’ve found that same info, but also that the “short chain” CA is not safe, and the “long chain” CA which is approved for the medical use in the USA is generally safe. Problem is, all I cound find in my homecountry of Serbia is that “not-safe” type. What CA are you using? I’m sure you’ve mentioned it somewhere, so please excuse my lazyness. If that one is the safe kind maybe I can get it to here through some people I know

          I am using some I get from Stewart Macdonald online. I live in Canada and they are in the US. They make products for musical instruments. It is the one that I have found is workable. It comes in several colours and I use the black and clear. I have yet to try the amber one.

            Thanks for the info. I went to their website but sadly couldn’t find any technical document for the product itself.
            What I did find with a little help from my wife (she’s a biochemist) is that the longer chain CA is generally safer, and that is the one approved by the FDA. Exact name is 2-Octyl cyanoacrylate, while the one I am able to find is the common ethyl cyanoacrylate, and I’m guessing yours is too, because outside of the medical practice there really is no need for any other king, as it works the same for the general usage.
            If you ever find yourself interested in the subject, and maybe find some 2-Octyl CA please leave the info here.

            Sorry for bothering, and I hope I wasn’t a nuissance 🙂

    Hello,
    I really admire your skill and stunning aesthetic results achieved even for desperate cases, but as a biologist and a pipe smoker I can not make you see that most of the materials used are particularly toxic and harmful, and often carcinogenic, eg cyanoacrylate on the mouthpiece, or various chemical dyes used with ease, even inside the bowl, so very good for pipe ornament, but not yet to be smoked without incurring serious risks
    Best Regards,
    Phil ,from ‘Italy

    1. rebornpipes Post author

      Thank you Phil. I am unsure of what you are speaking of other than the cyanoacrylate. I never use toxic stains on the inside of the bowls and am quite careful to keep the stain out of the bowl. I also use no toxic stains on the outside. I use an aniline stain on the exterior which is what many pipe makers use. I apply it and flame it which removes the alcohol and leaves the stain in the briar. In terms of the cyanoacrylate – I have done a lot of research and found that once it dries and hardens it is impermeable. It is the same material that was used by Vietnam era in field dressing and closing wounds. I am unclear what other things which you label as “most of the materials used are particularly toxic and harmful” that I use. Please clarify what you are referring to. I appreciate your posting here.

        I’m not Phil, but I probably can explain. You often apply cyanoacrylate to the stems.
        This substance is toxic – not high toxic, but toxic. No one of the superglues is food safe!
        Even if it is of low toxicity, you can’´t apply it to a thing, people have in their mouths!
        It’s not that toxic, but keep in mind, the folks are chewing on the stems, salivating on
        them. Their spittle is of course interspersed with cyanoacrylate than. Be aware, all
        the superglues are not allowed to have contact with food or be inhaled… Aniline is
        suspected to cause cancer. No one pipemaker (I know few) uses aniline stains.
        No aniline stain has an approval to be used in contact with food. Its forbidden to be
        used in rubber toys, for example. Aniline fumes are toxic – hight toxic.

    Mr. Steve, I love reading about your and the contributors experiences in bringing back some gems and I have gained some knowledge for my own restorations. None quite as adventurous of some of yours. I have a pipe that I had repaired when I inherited it from my Great, Great Grandfather. The pipe is briar as far as I can tell. It is the shape of a bulls head and has Bullshead written on the shank. it also has “made in England on the underside of the wind cap. This is about all the information I have on it. I was wondering if you would happen to have any more. I have attached pictures. Thanks in advance. Chris

    1. rebornpipes Post author

      Chris, the pipe is an old one – the stem is horn and the fitting and carving are very well done. My guess would be from the early 1900s but can’t get more specific. As for the maker – no way of knowing for sure. Though being English made you could search the various catalogues of English pipes available on line and see if you can find a maker. It does appear to be briar. Is the stem broken away from the shank? It appears to be in the photos. Any way what a great piece of history to have in your hands.

        I have almost the exact same pipe head, but the rest was broken off. Mine does not have “bullshead” carved into it, but it does read “made in England” on the inside of the lid attached to the nosering chain. The metal piece that used to attach the stem has some strange carvings in it that I cannot decipher. The top row is what appears to be an arrow, star, and a bird with an upside down triangle underneath with the letters WDC inside of it. Can you help me at all understand more about this??

    Hey, Steve, how are you? Your blog is fenomenal and I follow it constantly. I have a little problem with one of my pipes and I think that you can help me a little. A friend closed his tobacco shop and gave me a little estate Dunhill Dublin n.2 Bryuere, but with the passing of time and probably the wrong care with this piece of art (It was my first pipe), the tenon now don’t fix more at the shank. I don’t know if the tenon or the entire stem is thinner than before, or the shank is larger. I put some odontological resine to fill the space, but the resine didn’t stay on the tenon. In this case, what is the better way to fix it?. It’s a Dunhill and I love this little pipe. Thanks a lot since now and forgive me by my poor english. Greetings from Brazil!

      Welcome to rebornpipes. Good to see you here. I have used a simple fix that I learned from a pipemaker friend of mine. It works well 99% of the time for me. Over time the shank can dry and shrink and the tenon become loose. His suggestion was to apply clear water to the inside of the mortise with a cotton swab and repeat until the wood swells and the stem is held tightly. Then with smoking regularly the stem stays in place. Another thing I use to correct it for the 1% of the time this does not work is to coat the tenon with clear fingernail polish or clear superglue. Once it dries you often have lightly sand it to get it back in place but it works well also.

    Steve,

    I’ve really enjoyed your blog. I started restoring pipes about a year ago, but struggled to get the oxidization out of some of the stems. Your technique of soaking them in a cleaning solution to bring out all of the oxidization sounded good, so I tried it. Since I already had some cheap vodka, which I use for the salt cleaning process in the bowl, I decided to try that. It worked like a champ, all the nasty oxidization came to the surface and then I removed it with 2000 grit wet/dry sand paper.

    I still don’t have a pipe reamer, but have had real good luck with using kosher salt and a liberal amount of vodka. This does a good job of softening the cake, which scrapes out easily after a day or so. I then use 150 grit sand paper on the inside of the bowl to take the cake down to an acceptable level. I usually re-sweeten the bowl.

    I especially enjoy your articles on rustication. That will be my next project.

    Best regards,
    Andrew

    Great blog thanks!!
    I have made a couple of pipes in the past, and am currently restoring a batch of 7 i picked up online. Five of the pipes had normal vulcanite stems but the other two had stems which i am assuming are acrylic? they did not like the tripoli polish on a mop at all, it kind of ate into them…
    Any suggestions on getting them nice, just through to a higher grit sandpaper?? i usually just use tripoli and then carnauba wax, all on soft mops.

    Well I’m so glad I’ve bumped into this site………I’ve been smoking a pipe for six weeks now and already I’m interested in restoring, it started after lightly sanding the gunky black marks off my cheap basket pipe and thinking ooohh that looks better than when I bought it. So I’ve invested in a couple off ebay UK along with a polishing mop and some carnauba wax. I just need to wait until it all arrives. But in the meantime I’ll be reading and learning. Many thanks on a very in depth and informative blog.

    Hello! First off i wanted to tell you what an amazing job you do, it is very excellent, the pipes are truly brought back life!
    I also wanted to ask: For the stems, you’re using stems from Pipemakers.org (pipe emporium) right?
    If you are, how good are they? i havent bought any yet. Is the Vulcanite good?
    Also i see the tendon is very thick, is it necesary to have a Pimo Tenon cutter? or can you do it while a file?
    Thank you and Greetings from Chile!
    Cheers.

    1. rebornpipes Post author

      Most of the stems I have picked up used on Ebay or traded for from other repair folks. There is certainly some difference in the quality of vulcanite in them. I have purchased some from PME (pipe makers emporium) and have found the non sale ones to be good. I use a PIMO tenon cutter but have also done some reading on the PME tenon cutter which is virtually the same. I make slight adjustments with a file or rasp but care must be taken to keep it round.

It would be great to collect the best of techniques in one spot to pass on to others.

    Thanks for your excellent blog.I had considered entering the world of pipe refurbishing as a relaxation hobby and find that your refurbishing essays are quite informative. I have also enjoyed several of your Father Tom stories and plan to read more as time permits. Thanks and well done, sir! BR

      Thanks Brant, glad you found the blog helpful. Refurbishing has been a relaxation hobby for me as well. It also is a great creative outlet for me. I love taking the old beaters and restoring them or if I feel like reforming them. Enjoy yourself here.
