Holy smokes that is an awesome pipe.. Love the case.
Props on the handmade brass hardware.. Balsa is fun to carve isn't it?

Very interesting concept would like to see a followup on this..

It will be difficult to keep it from checking as it drys though.

I've made several Apple Wood pipes. i picked up some 2" x 3 1/2" by 35" boards from a friend that he's had sitting for about 25 years. I'm very new to pipe making but from what i can tell they smoke just fine.. I leave the walls of the bowl and shank a little thicker since it doesn't ...

Great video. I'm a newbie at pipe making.
I don't have a metal lathe but i am using my old craftmans wood lathe to make my pipes.
I saw several steps in there that i have been skipping or hadn't thought of that will really help me out..

Thanks again!
