I appreciate the comment. Thank you for watching.

That stuff is amazing

[@The_Southland_Piper]

G Flex works really well. Thank you for watching.

I watched Bare Piper repair a vulcanite stem using a mixture of Stewmac adhesive, which is used for musical instrument repair and vulcanite dust. I tried it on a stem similar to the one that you’re showing, and it worked flawlessly. You can clinch with no worries of it cracking and it seamless you just about can’t tell where the repair was made. I thought this may help.

[@The_Southland_Piper]

I was using Stewmac but I like the G Flex better. I still use CA glue from time to time. Thank you for watching.

[@johnmains9201]

I’ll try the GFlex, do you mix it with vulcanite dust?

[@The_Southland_Piper]

@@johnmains9201
I mix it with black epoxy pigment

[@johnmains9201]

Thank you, I’ll try it on my next repair.

I’m always looking forward to Sundays for your videos!

[@The_Southland_Piper]

Glad you enjoyed the videos. Thank you for watching.

That’s good work. Did you know that the lubricant you made out of wax and oil makes a fair leather conditioner? It’d make the bed of that vise look pretty good. Thanks for the video.

[@The_Southland_Piper]

It’s good for a lot of things. Thank you for watching.

[@thedreadtyger]

goodness gracious, sir! that's a remarkable repair.

This is so cool! What an amazing skill to have. It must be very rewarding to give new life to a pipe like that. Well done!

[@The_Southland_Piper]

Thank You. I’m very pleased on how the stem turned out. Thank you for watching.

@@The_Southland_Piper it was my pleasure indeed!

[@SouthAlabamaPiper]

I’ve done a similar repair on a Ropp Canadian/lumberman with the same void. I used charcoal and black SA glue . It turned out pretty good almost like I knew what I was doing. lol

[@The_Southland_Piper]

I’ve done that type of repair as well

[@SouthAlabamaPiper]

@@The_Southland_Piper I like your way better
