[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 174721, member: 1969"] This is probably undue paranoia on my part, but a just-smoked pipe is saturated with a good amount of water--freezing expands and makes ice crystals, which if it isn't good for foodstuffs by breaking it apart and breaking it down, I can't see it being super good for pipes. It may make the wood more porous. If you do this, I'd suggest to let it rest few days to dry out. More would be better. Again, just a thought. I might also think too much. Who knows, after a good rest, try taking it apart again. *shrug* [/QUOTE]
