[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 29574"] 1st question : you should let it [u]cool/dry out[/u] in the shank area [u]before[/u] putting the stem back in the pipe. Putting it back in while the pipe's still warm will eventually screw up the fit of the tennon in the mortise. 2nd question : I can't answer that one except to note that the epoxy or cement keeping the screw-in end of the stem in winding (so the stem aligns properly) can loosen if twisted when it's warm. :face: [/QUOTE]
