[QUOTE="Sasquatch, post: 41293, member: 509"] I took my Pete 315 xl down to the wood last night, SP. I was looking down the bowl and thinking, "I don't remember this pipe being skinnier than my finger". I took about 3/16" outta that sucker, and now it takes more than a single pinch of tobacco again! I have found that when I ream a well used pipe, even if I take the cake right out, it cakes up super fast again anyhow (like, 2 smokes). I guess a guy should smoke with extra care if he takes the cake right out, because I do think it protects the briar somewhat. So I guess the answer is, if you smoke hot at all, you should probably leave a bit of cake in order to protect the pipe. If you are a slow puffer, and I have reason to believe you might be.... I wouldn't worry about it too much. I tend to smoke very slow (I smoke a lotta Mac Baren) and I finish the bowl totally about 90% of the time, so I tend to ingore the cake situation in my pipes. Never had one crack, never had one burn out. :roll: [/QUOTE]
