Yes gluing some ferrules.
I've played Lawries for 50 years now, their ferrules were just glued on, and I think every old Lawrie I've ever owned (a dozen or so) have had at least one loose ferrule. I take it as par for the course.
I remember somebody returning the pipes they bought because they were "defective", turns out it was a loose ferrule!
Speaking of old Lawries, there's been one on Ebay a while now. The seller keeps lowering the price and still no takers. It's down to under $500 now. I don't need another Lawrie, but at that price I might have to get those.
