Re: Problem Meerschaum Pipes: Myth or Legend?

I received a replacement mortise insert for my problem SMS meer today. This mortise was kindly provided by IKMeerschaum. I replaced the original defective mortise with the new one from Tobacco Barn and the difference is amazing. The stem attaches firmly and the entire pipe seems more rigid. What surprises me even more is how much the draw has improved! Apparently there air have been a leaking out around the mortise/tenon joint or perhaps between the shank and the mortise insert. In any case, the pipe smokes looks, and feels much better than it ever did even when new. Thanks again IKM for all your help!

Thanks you both Charlie and John for the kind words.

I'm glad that something as simple as the replacement mortices could resolve the problem you were both having with your meers!
