[QUOTE="Bowtie, post: 196128, member: 1638"] Has anyone re-corked an old Calabash? I was the lucky winner of an old one on e-bay that looked like a crap shoot. It appeared to have some problems. I got it for $20 including the shipping cost and expected the worst. It actually was in fine shape. The Meer bowl cleaned up great, the gourd was perfect and hard as a rock. All it needed was a good buffing, a new silver band between the gourd and the stem and new cork at the bowl seal. I'm confident that I can cobble something up but would welcome some experienced advice. Jeff.... [/QUOTE]
