Long Term Briar Storage???
Hi Guys, Due to moving and family concerns, I have to put my pipemaking on hold for some time. I want to keep my briar and supplies in hopes of returning to pipemaking in the future. Right now I keep my briar in the house, but I won't have room for it soon. Will briar stored in an unheated garage su...

Sanding Disc Recommendations?????
For over a year I've been using 3" 'Wave' hook and loop sanding disks for rough shaping. The latest batch of wave discs I bought from Woodcraft are crap! The loop fabric isn't glued well to the sandpaper and every one I've used so far have come apart. Its not seriously dangerous, but not a lot ...

I've never ordered from Jamestown, but they were recommended when Bits-n-bores closed down. I'll bet McMaster Carr has them too.

There is a bit of waste even for a small tamper. But it is the easiest method I've come up with so far. Now if I had a drill press, I could cut the diagonal pieces, drill them for a dowel and glue them up that way. Or if I wanted to do a lot of these I could make a clamping jig, but for a few I'll s...

The problem with the small bit falling out of your rotary tool can be resolved by getting a smaller collet. They usually sell different size collets where they sell the rotary tools. Rather than having a bunch of different collets, go with the keyless chuck. No more changing collets to change bits!...

Re: Sanding across different materials.
how exactly do you do those joints? The easiest way I know is to cut strips of the woods, in this case maple and bubinga. Glue them together using wood glue, clamp and let dry. Then cut the blank diagonally out of the glued block(shown below by the bold lines). http://www.ozarkmountainbriars.com/im...

Sanding across different materials.
I've worked with woods a lot, never gave much thought about how to sand pieces with two different materials joined together. And never had much of a problem. 8) Working on this tamper was a major PITA! http://www.ozarkmountainbriars.com/images/maplebubingastr1.jpg I normally sand my tampers using st...
