Tom I find that the first smoke or two will tighten them right up.Enjoy that old girl

great find..

I cannot believe that you did that with a drill!! And without EYE protection!

Tom, you handle that drill like a pro. I'd be shaking like a wreck and have a ruined bowl with a smoke hole at the front!
I agree. Bees are magical creatures. They give us honey. And wax to work stem wonders!

Funny how those pacific NW homes have heat lamps in a lot of em. Not surprising, just different. Keep that fire stoked up and stay warm Tom!

great to see a new video- and 5/32's is the best way- using a tap holder to turn the drill though, that drill freaks me out- all my pipes have been opened up. the beeswax works for everything and it is nontoxic natural goodness.any tips on how to stop a whistler?

@GTFiorano - You know, I don't have any whistlers. I would have thought the 5/32's reamout would have solved that. I've also done the hand-turning of the bit, but it's got to be a genuinely sharp bit or you put some stress on the shank. Being careful and respectful of the pipe works for me.

Hello Tom
I like how you keep things simple. Great video, great information. And best of all an old pipe is new again.

@backcountrypipe - I'm all about 'simple is better' in most everything. I love the 'patina' and all that implies, with estate pipes. If only they could tell their stories!
