Rubber pipe bits…
I just found about rubber pipe bits… What a useful tool they are…
A rubber tube like cover for the end of the stem, to prevent stem damage. The offer more comfortable and easier grip while smoking – in my opinion better than holding directly to acrylic or vulcanite stems. What is more important to me is that they actually do a great job protecting your expensive pipes mouthpieces from having teeth marks. This is really great – tNd tobacco pipes recommend them for our pipes for sure.
You can find them at Smokingpipes.com, Tobacco-barn.com, wvsmokeshop.com, uniquebriar.com, pipetobacco.com and so on – there are really many sites to check….
Some of the manufacturers that make them are Softy Bits, B J Long, Mitchell Thomas and others…..
They are really cheap 🙂
