[QUOTE="KevinM, post: 336266, member: 2318"] I clean the bowl after each smoke with a folded pipe cleaner. If uneven cake develops, I'll take some sandpaper to it. If a chunk of cake comes loose, I try to smooth the edges with a little piece of sandpaper while trying to maintain unifom thickness of the surrounding cake when possible. If not possible, I smoke on and the problem has always resolved itself. I don't own a reamer and note some sellers of refurbed pipes will, noting condition, comment on damage from "over-enthusiastic reaming." I think a lot depends on how often a pipe is smoked and what is smoked in it. Don't worry about little things, especially if a pipe is performing to your satisfaction. Chances are your house isn't on the schedule of the photographer from P&T magazine. [/QUOTE]
