Also saw a couple under the name IDEAL-SMOKER if that helps but not in this type.

Had this sitting in the shed for a couple years, Im pretty sure its made by "The Metal Stamping Company under the name IDEAL. Anyone ever seen or have anything close to this. My daughter and I started refinishing it today. Possibly 20s or 30s? Just trying to get a little history on it... Thanks

Well couldnt wait, shined her up tonight, smokes like a dream, my favorite in my rotation till I get another.

No problem, pics r coming as soon as I pick up new buffing wheels tomorrow, cant wait to try it out... Been sweetening it for 2 days, the cake wasnt too thick and there are barely any teethmarks on it. What years do you guys think its from, if I may ask?

Fount a Savinelli Oscar in an estate lot today for a couple bucks, Lucky Lucky day, cant wait to clean it up...

still looking but thanks for the help everyone. This has me stumped. Took it down to the local pipe maker because he deals in estate pipes also, and hes not sure either????

Well this is what I got- SHAPE 34 Medium octagon apple Years: 1928, 1935-1938 But it doesnt seem right, I didnt think kaywoodies came in white briar that far back. shouldnt the clover be on top. maybe im wrong But-----? and the stinger isnt labeled drinkless?

Have A cracked shank on a Ben wade I need repaired, Wondering what my options would be and if so I would like to do it without putting a ring on it. Anyone in mind who do a good repair?

Found this one today and picked it up because it was unusual, its a kaywoodie white briar #34, 4 hole stinger..... And also this is only my second white briar what is the best way to clean the finish without taking off the white. thanks sorry bout the cell phone pics.

I recently acquired a kaywoodie Flame grain meerschaum lined 4 hole stinger, in pretty bad shape from a flea market for a dollar and the collar that screws into the shank was stuck to the end of the drinkless attachment, after unscrewing the stinger, and the jammed collar from the stem I soaked...

Im new to the Pipe smoking community, started collecting mostly kaywoodies about a year ago. Hope to make a few friends and ask a couple questions, Looks like a very useful and friendly site.
