pipes

<< < (2/2)

Scallorn:
Very cool! Not allot of people make that kind of thing. I like clay pipes, but I never have made one. All of my pipes are made of hardwoods like hickory and some fruit trees.

Kullas:
Good looking pipe there. I havent made a lot of wood pipes because its hard for me to make the stems and i refuse to buy them  :D

Scallorn:
The stems are a hard thing to get right. Use hardwood stems with a pith in the center, I use viburnum species. Then take a hot wire and push or drill it through the center to hollow it out. You can also use cane or reed stems, they are naturally hollow.
