Could I use just regular pipe cleaners from the art section to clean my corn cob pipe or do I need real ones?

Asked by micksarecool (53points) March 2nd, 2008 from iPhone

I found decorative cleaners at wal mart but will they work or just fall apart in the pipe tobacco dirt

they’ll work, but you might have to blow out little “fluffies” left from the pipe ha. i’d go to a place like the Tinder Box and try and find some specifically for pipe cleaning.

First of all, What the heck are you smoking out of a corn cob pipe for? That is some OOOOOOOOOOOLD SCHOOL technology. You should get a glass! If those pipe cleaners don’t work, you can always do like they did back in the day, just cut a new corn cob.

My SO smokes a corn cob pipe. He buys them at the store, and doesn’t “carve up a corn cob” as bulbatron must think. The pipe cleaners you mentioned at Wal mart will work, but not as well as the ones ishotthesheriff suggested. A glass pipe??? What are you smoking in that?

I was just trying to save micksarecool a couple of bucks. What do you think corn cob pipes are made out of scamp? I was just recently informed, by an undisclosed source, that corn cob pipes make you look bad-ass!

Corn cob pipes are exactly what the name implies. They are made from corn cobs. When you suggested he “cut himself a new one” it sounded like you thought he was carving them himself. LOL at looking bad-ass while smoking one. I told SO you said that, and he fired his up and is now struttin his stuff!! BTW, the video cracked me up.
