Beautiful pipe Charley.Bad news, I broke a nail and couldn't play today. Good news, I ran home and was able to open up the draw on the Bacchus meerschaum and replace the tenon. It's fifty years old and they still use the same parts! I've never bought a used pipe in such good outward appearance.

I was glad to find it separates into four pieces, and that allowed me to Dremel the shank open. I still have to repair my thumb nail, so I won't smoke it right away, but it is ready to go.
