Eric, the creator of Tangiers, I know has a KM that lasted him like 15 years. Just wash it out good after every smoke and it'll last you a long time. And KMs are not known to rust due to the materials they're made of, which is one of the many reasons why they're so popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zha28 Posted February 20, 2010 Author Share Posted February 20, 2010 Also if you look at the 5th picture you see the space between the stem and base. That matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That matter? [/quote] Nah, that's actually pretty normal. If you want to get rid of the gap, you'll have to shave down the grommet. Or lube it up with water when you stick the stem on the vase and see if it looks any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
