Hello guys, as I said in the title I'm a new member on the forum. I'm a 36 years old french boy and live near La rochelle (west coast). I began to smoke pipe at the age of 20 but I really enjoy it a few months ago... because a french forum give me the instructions for a better smoking. For the moment, I don't have many briars and just smoke few tobaccos but I hope to buy other and other one
I like bee, hawkbill and calabash... rounded shape, and pretty strong tobacco (brown, with latakia...) but my taste are continually evolve. Sorry for my english, I try to do my best. The making of pipes is my new interest and like to learn more and more about it.
Best regards,

Thanks for all guys, yes I have a lot to learn. I began to read a lot on the forum but I don't find something I really need to understand : a diagram or something like that to see how it works exactly... to begin, the english name of the pieces, I have a diagram but not enough specific. Where the air chamber stop, the diameter of the mortise,... If you have this, I'll take it !

Yes, I have a similar one. But this is more detailed. What I search is the shape with the details (length, diameter, ...) of each pipe. Maybe it does not exist
Thanks and best regards,

I do not believe there exists a
valeur - étalon, a set standard with recommended dimensions for each shape.
