[QUOTE="alfredo_buscatti, post: 335141, member: 36"] I got the airway open. I had to use 3 successively larger drill bits before I finally got one that would grab the obstructive material and remove it. It turned out to be mostly wood with a bit of tobacco. It's as if part of the inner shank splintered off, hung down and obstructed the airway. Thus the cob has been rescued! But I inadvertently pulled the end of the shank out the bowl. But having done so I can now cut off the part of it that enters the bowl. I'd heard of others removing this part but could never figure out how they maneuvered some sort of small saw inside the bowl.:suspect: :suspect: I might just do this with all my cobs, including 10 I ordered today. I'll be buying more briar pipes, but cobs are quickly becoming my first pipe choice. Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
