Hey everyone,
Jason Patrick here. I've been a pipe smoker for the past 15 years or so. I got into pipe making earlier this year. I started with some wood in my garage to get the feel, and then got the bug. Bought a drill press, a belt sander and band saw and got a bunch of briar and stems at the Chicago pipe show a few weeks back. I found this forum via the facebook group, and I'm so glad I did! Lots of wisdom here, and I'm excited to learn.
Here's a few pics of an olive wood pipe I just finished up for a friend.
