[QUOTE="Greenleaf, post: 145762, member: 1097"] I never remove the stem unless it's for a rare thorough cleaning with Bourbon. Also remove stems when I need to clean and wax them. With the pipe in my pouch, when I out of the house that is, I'm in the habit of slipping a cleaner in it before putting it back in the pouch, then I clean it quickly before loading for another smoke. At home, I'm less methodical. But, basically I just run a cleaner through the still-assembled stem and shank. Removing stems never seemed to lead to anything like making them fit more loosely over time, but I'd like to know if such has been anyone else's experience. [/QUOTE]
