Old Jarl 70 Repair?...

[droy1958]

This was listed as a Carl pipe. I thought something was fishy when I did a search in Danish pipes, so I tossed $7.00 at it. Come to find out, it was a Jarl, Made in Denmark pipe and worth quite a bit more than $7.00. It has a hole by the button. Is there an easy repair for something like this?...

Depends on what it's worth to you. You can have a pro fix it like @Rustabletoken did with his Paris Dunhill and it will be almost perfect. I fixed a cheapy with JB Weld. While perfectly functional, it is not the prettiest repair. I have also heard you can use black hot melt glue but I have yet to try this trick.

Thanks for the reply. The local guy said he's 2 months behind on repairs. I didn't even ask him the cost.....

Haven't had any work done by them but the finished product is nice and the youtube channel is rather entertaining

Hey @Smoqman

Super glue and charcoal. Or black super glue if u can find it.

Restore the stem and get off all the oxidation. Put a piece of cardboard in the bit and fill. Then file it, sand it with micromesh. Will be virtually invisible.

There is a thread around here with instructions and pics.
