Absolutely intriguing!! As an Artist, it's fascinating to listen to you discussing about pipe making!! I was on the edge of my seat listening to every detail which you were speaking upon. I've been wondering how one goes about pipe making. Loved every moment of your video. Appreciate it.
Where my first comments went to are a mystery to me!!🤔I was saying that your video and channel are fascinating. As an Artist, I've been wondering how pipes are made, so I really loved this video. I can appreciate the tip about buying whiskey too.😉
If you want a recommendation on a good Irish sipping whiskey, get your hands on some Sexton. You get both a good whiskey and a really cool looking bottle.
I'm anxious to see your next video. Bamboo plagued me at the previous home i owned and said to myself i never want to see bamboo again...... that is until i started pipe smoking. Now i see the beauty in it and have wondered how pipe makers prepare it and shape it.
I too have bamboo in my backyard, so I was thinking instead of ordering some from PIMO, I could use what's right there. Could you perhaps walk us through how to process your own to make it ready for a pipe? Thanks for two great episodes so far!
Hey brother, just curious what size bits for the various holes do you recommend for the best smoke? I am willing to go with trial and error but the corn cob pipe I got is not the best for me. I get a bit too much smoke and it's hot. Should I go smaller? I'm brand new to the pipe scene and want to build my own. Thanks in advance!
I have about 4 different sizes contingent on shape. In pipemaking there are two profiles. Parabolic and conical. Then there are sizes to those profiles. I have mostly parabolic profiles for my pipes. The airway is commonly 5/32 in diameter. Tobacco chamber and mortise are up to design and proportion. Typically mortise diameter ranges from 3/16, 1/4, 5/16. They can go larger depending on design
@@CatholicPipes thank you! I'll take that into consideration! I'll try to let you know how it goes! I'm going for a Lord of the Rings design(I know, everyone's done it haha). I'm not going to make the stem too long though like Gandalf's. More of a medium hobbit pipe haha. Love your work and I also like working with my hands so thank you for the inspiration and knowledge.
