Bo Nordh may he R.I.P

Good to see a master at work....and to hear him in his native language...an added layer of appreciation...

Thanks for taking the time to do this Mike! Always a delight watching carver's processes.

Thanks a lot for posting this! fantastic! Cheers, Harvey

Absolutely fascinating video. Thanks for sharing it! Cheers, James

Thanks so much for sharing this.

LOVE RESPECT FROM A ANCIENT CULTURED CIVILIZED LAND OF THE PERSIANS!!!!!!!!! IRAN!!!!!!!!! PIPE SMOKING IN IRAN HAS COME FROM FRENCH INFLUENCE. FROM 1905 TO THE LATE 60S IRANIAN STUDENTS WOULD GO TO FRANCE BELGIUM SWISSRLAND.

I could watch pipemaking for hours. Great video. Thanks for sharing. Ron

Tack så mycket & lycka till själv om du nu håller på med pipor!

Wow! Amazing to see the grain come out in the shape! Enjoys the simple, yet fine things in life. Enjoys life itself. Wow! What talent.

@VSLDavid Thank you David. Anyone who tried their hands on making a pipe from a kit can appreciate just how truly brilliant these artisan pipe makers really are. It's great just watching them do their magic... and dream about one day reaching a fraction of their level. :) Cheers, - Mike

Fantastic. Thank you very much for giving this to us english speakers.

Great video! Thanks for posting it, Mike. :) ~D

Saying thank you is not enough. I can't express how much I enjoyed this video and will share it on my blog right now for obvious reasons. A very cordial hug from a fellow pipe smoker, - Bruno

En mästare Micke. Ha en fin stund. Olle

@EastEndPipes Same here. Glad you liked it. - Mike

I never realized that Bo did his bowls with a hand drill. That's pretty awesome.

UNderbar video!

@Pipescratch Glad you liked it sir. Cheers, - Mike

@DailyPuffer Thank you for the kind words Bruno. I'm very glad you liked it. Hugs in return, - Mike

@pipeheadOR Yeah, he had an eye for reading the grain that I find amazing. All the interviews with him that i've read show that he was a real down-to-earth guy. Sad that he's gone. Cheers, - Mike

Cool vid Mike.

@januaryrainman Thanks! As far as I know, this is it. I could also have watched more. Cheers, - Mike

Amazing video! Does anyone knows the music of this video? Thank you

The pipe of Valhalla! greating!

@hjrosasq Glad you like it Harvey. Cheers, - Mike

@buckeyepipesmoker Thank you. I hope you found it inspirational. Cheers, - Mike

Makes me wanna have a smoke now.

@Pipepoet Thanks Arko. I had to ask my wife to translate some of what Bo said, because the Skånska dialect is VERY difficult to me. LOL! - Mike

@rollerpodger I feel the same. Thanks.

@pipeargentine Thank you! - M

There was no Greater Pipe Maker than He.

@snuggan1 Tack Olle. Jo, Bo var sannerligen en mästare. Tråkigt att han inte finns med oss längre. - M

Great great .......genius

@gdsnuff What! You didn't buy it? :) I've never seen one of his pipes live. There's an exhibition down in the south of sweden showing some of his pipes but I won't be able to go there. :( Mike

@ToBaCCoRoW Bo was a true wizard. Cheers, - Mike

@GothamCitySmoker I heard he could spend 3 months working on a single pipe, just to get it perfect. Glad you liked it. - Mike

@BrassknuckleRide Kul att du gillade den!

@lilclark72 Thanks Dylan. It's when you see guys like these that you understand how some pipes can cost a fortune. :) - Mike

@KyDugong Yeah! Freehand drilling scares the bejeezus out of me... on day perhaps. :) Cheers, - Mike

this is nice.. but are there any videos of making a pipe wit just a knife and some sandpaper? cause i cant afford much.

Nu orkar jag inte leta längre & måste fråga, vad kallas det han penslar på i slutet? Vanlig träolja eller klarlack av nåt slag?

@dohngl Thanks Dean. Well, they say that fancy gadgets doesn't make a better pipe - it just cuts the time making one. I know Bo could spend months on a single pipe just to get that perfect finish. You know as well as I do how much work that's involved in that stage. ;) But yeh, I'm sure Bo kept a few secrets to himself. Cheers mate, - Mike

There are the great pipe masters and above the Gods .....behold a God of pipe

where are the subtitles???

It’s too hard to find Bo Nordh pipe

@PipePedaler He sure was. What I wouldn't have paid to get an afternoon class in his pipe shop. - Mike

Great technician,a "pipe virtuoso" i say.

@Ichbinmuede Glad you liked it. I can't figure out why swedish isn't a world-language. :)

I've seen this 12 years ago for the first time and visited time to time. Since then, I wonder what he said after openning the barbecue (6:23) in Swedish. Would you please write those words here?

@pokiebaron I think a lot of people feel like you. Cheers, - Mike

Skaft finns att köpa (kolla hos P.E. Hermann). Dessa är halvfabrikat så visst eget arbete behövs. Man kan också köpa stavar (Ebonit eller Akryl) och bygga själv men det är överkurs. Kolla Pipedia på nätet så hittar du svar på det mesta om piptillverkning. Lycka till!

👍

I don't even smoke and I found this very interesting lol

Well, if you plan to make a pipe out of briar wood I have to warn you that this is a very tough wood. You *can* use a knife, but it has to be razor-sharp... and even then the wood tends to chip easily. The problem with pipes is that they need to be made of really hard wood so that they doesn't burn out so easily as softer wood. I recommend saving up for at least a rasp and a good file. They doesn't cost very much.

you could make a corn cob pipe with just a knife. I've made a few of them that way.

i make one using olive wood only use my knife and sand paper...and it´s a good pipe:)
