Pipe Mud - the Miracle Salvage Compound

[Mister Moo]

Experiments shall commence forthwith.

Concur with E'Zurg - not mud on the exterior; Elmer's Glue, Elmer's Wood Glue, Titebond, etc.

Does the cigar ash add the taste of cigar to the pipe smoke?

Not near as much as the intruding pine shank awaiting burnout in a new cob. I notice a hint of cigar sometimes; never lasts more than a smoke oor two at the most.

Too late. I'm a man of action.

Damn it, Jim! I'm a pipe repairman, not a doctor.

And a man of action. Bravo. I have assumed pipe mud hardened from curing under pretty high heat so my feeling is that gasket will crumble, probably sooner than later. Happy to be wrong, please keep us posted on what happens. Also, if that is water/moisture around the leftover stuff and the patch on the pipe I'd say the stuff was way too wet. When I did mud too wet it always crumbled.

I'd just break that ash right on up, and put some wood glue there instead.

That's just me though. I'm not saying, I'm just saying.

Oh, ye of little faith.

A'Gar - I am an eternal optimist and i really hope it performs brilliantly! Please keep us posted.

Branzig - Jus' sayin' I wouldn't be smokin' that cob up over Mrs. Moo's white tablecloth is all I'm sayin'.

Good lord, that is ugly

LOL, it's hideous, isn't it? I'm thinking about spray painting the whole thing blue, just to dress it up a little.

You're subtlety never ceases to amaze me

Careful painting pipes. It chokes off their natural ability to breath. They won't dry out like they should and can smoke hotter.
