New Churchwarden Pipe MK2









  I have been experimenting with stem connection.
I was able to get a 15mm by 1m acrylic rod so no more stupid pen blanks.
The bowl is tapped 10mm.
The acrylic spacer has a 10mm thread on one end the other
is tapped 8mm.
Threaded the vulcanite stem 8mm to my surprise it threaded perfectly.
To overcome the alignment problem i turned a small briar lock nut.
So the stem can be rotated to any position and locked.
I have smoked this pipe about 10 times so far and this system works well perfect seal and tight.
