[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 307729"] Are you sure you can't live with it. If you say yes, I will understand. It looks like the mortice was slightly off center or there was some warping after construction. No amount of sanding would fix it. Any such fix would would be to worsen over time. The fix is to bore to establish true alignment and then replace the tenon. I'd suggest the repair shop be associated with a custom pipe builder who can establish true as they can building from scratch. Standard shops that do good work otherwise may or may not have the tools to do the work without great effort and luck. A good pipe maker should. [/QUOTE]
