Is there any way of replacing a broken pipe-stem?

Most large pipe shops will perform pipe repairs. They may obtain an exact replacement stem from the factory that orig­inally made the pipe, or they may use a new stem. In any event, the new stem will have to be carefully fitted to the original shank. The special tools and skilled workmanship re­quired to do this are available, but they may cost a few dol­lars. Unless the pipe is an unusually fine and treasured specimen, it may be cheaper to buy a new pipe. Meerschaum pipes are generally much more difficult to repair than briar pipes.
