Traveled to fix a saltwater-damaged carpet last spring. The old guy there showed me his method with paper tape. Said it held up better in damp air. We mostly use plastic now, but his way worked. Makes me think we lost some good tricks.
Some installers say seams should be hidden in low traffic zones to avoid wear. Others argue that proper seaming techniques make seams durable anywhere. What's your go to method for seams in busy spots? I used to always tuck seams under furniture, but now I'm seeing more pros just seam it right in the walkway.

Washing dishes made me rethink how I clean my blowpipe
Honestly, I let mine soak in hot, soapy water for a bit now, then scrub the mouthpiece with a bottle brush. A paste of baking soda and water works wonders for any stubborn spots too.
