Pipe ID "Kidur"
Ive got a pipe stamped Kidur. I cant find much about it other than it may from St Claude. Its got to be a second from one of the big french companies. It needs some work cleaning it up, but its a good looking piece.

Re: Buyers Remorse?
Ok then, no guts no glory. Suggestions for holding the plug in place? Its tricky, since it involves the bowl inside and out, i dont want to use anything that will be toxic when heated.

So Ive started by getting cheap pipes on auction to refurbish to get a feel for how they are made. May not be the best smokers but I want to get some k...
