Corn cob fixer upper

Have you ever won something on eBay and it just not meet expectation?
I always wanted a bamboo shank Cob. Saw this one listed, but the picture in the listing did not show the size of the bowl that well. Nothing else in the picture to provide scale.
As you can see the bowl was tiny, reminds me of a thimble.
Side by side with a standard Cob.
So the mission was to fit the bamboo stem to a new Missouri Meerschaum bowl.

Coping saw attack on the new cob....

Drilled out old stem and a little sanding....

A tiny bit of Elmers, press in, and finished....

Turned out pretty good, hope it smokes as good as most cobbs..
