can you clean a wood pipe by boiling it without ruining it?

I have this wooden pipe that I love and I got it from my grandpa but its all clogged up from using it to much and I was wondering if I boil it will it fuck up the pipe?

you wouldnt think so, but u can just as easily use rubbing alcohol then just clean that out.

Boiling doesn't sound like a good idea if the wood isn't treated with something water-proofing it.

if it is an older pipe boiling it might cause it to crack. use alcohal or boil some water, put 2 scoops of Oxy-Clean in a big bowl, pour in the hot water and stir it around, then finally place your pipe in their and let it soak. should come out good as new.

pipecleaner?

use as little water as possible, if the wood gets soaked it might start showing cracks when it dries up again
