Whip out the Woodies

[Mr Beardsley]

Can you warm the stem with a candle and remove the rest of the stinger?

Not sure yet. It's broken back into the stem. I was thinking about seeing if I could get a ez out to grab and back it out but that strikes me as a do or die kind of move

If you can warm the stem just enough, it should pull out with maybe an ez out or coarse thread screw jammed into the end. Then you just need a new stinger. I might even have one.

Well I'm bummed. I was cleaning the kaywoodie handmade zulu the other day after a smoke and the damn stinger busted right off of the stem. Actually looks like a old injury that I didn't notice when it arrived. Not sure what can be done, if anything, so it's out of commission

Clip it so you can put a vasalined pipe cleaner through it and super glue it back in. If it fails you're no worse off. Maybe don't clip it even... A pipe cleaner will pass through a 4 hole. I just think they smoke better clipped.

Ah man, there's at least two that I want. I need to get rid of some other pipes that I never smoke!

So I clicked the link...

I really don't like you.

That Kaywoodie Red-Root Tapered Panel pipe is coming home with me as long as it's still there when I get home.

Have I said I don't like you?

We're on the same page as far as removal goes. I'll probably give it a whirl this evening

I'll be needing to rid myself of something now too, it would appear.

You're welcome! Glad to be of service. The world is full of folks who don't like me and I just continue on my merry way

I've done the heat and freeze repeat with good results. I've applied heat directly to the stinger as well and that works.
