[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 183616, member: 1969"] ...did some pipe say something unflattering about your maternal family? :lol: I think the moisture theory is a good one... especially where the cracks are forming. It's possible there is a slight gap between the tip of the tenon and the inside of the mortise, and if moisture is collecting there frequently (you did say it was your favorite pipe...) it may be the wood soaking and expanding. Also, if there [i]is[/i] a flaw in that area underneath the finish that's out of view, this could be making the problem happen faster. [/QUOTE]
