Real name: Boomer
Age: 35
Location: Alaska
Years a pipe smoker: Bought my first pipe in 2006, put it away for 10 years. Bought another one in 2016, put it away for 4 years. Back into it now and finally have the bug.
How you got into pipe making: Seemed like a natural transition. I’ve carved a few waterfowl decoys and enjoy making things, so this seemed like a logical step. Still waiting on a few blocks to arrive so I can get after it!
Other interesting facts: Can’t think of any right now, but I’ll update if any come to mind.
