Woodturning - Tobacco Pipe (How to make a Tobacco Pipe - Detailed Explanation)

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Making my own Tobacco Pipes is what first really started me down the path of woodturning. I wanted a way to achieve the precise drilling required to create a perfect "draw". And so I bought my first lathe! Well actually my Dad bought me the lathe for my Christmas and Birthday.....Thanks Dad! Since the Briar wood was so expensive, I decided to try some local hardwoods; but the wood just kept cracking on me! So I began to search youtube for ways to dry wood without cracking. This led me to Sam Angelo' channel ( / @wyomingwoodturner ) where I found videos on drying wood. But he also had all these warped wooden bowls he showed he was drying. What the heck is this guy doing with these bowls? What's this all about? So I watched how he turned solid pieces of wet wood into bowls and other forms and I decided to give it a try. This was just over 4 years ago. And so here we are!

    A lovely pipe. I don't actually smoke but I'm English so a pipe is necessary for communication. As all Englishmen know, the only acceptable method of greeting an acquaintance in a public space is to hold one's pipe aloft and call out "Aaraah Yaheaargh!" or some other incoherent noise that sounds like a cross between gargling and groaning. It is also a vital implement for giving directions within one's locality. To point with anything other than a pipe is socially unforgivable and likely to bring shame upon one's family. After such a faux pas, there is nothing left but to do the honourable thing and spend an entire year being seen outside without a hat.

    I make and sell pipes as a hobby, and the demand is really picking up. I was drawn to your video, as there is always something to be learned, and your video didn't disappoint. The pipe is really nice, but the stem is where I really paid attention. Acrylic stems are a tricky thing, and you did a beautiful job and I learned quite a bit. Appreciate your experience and skill, and your willingness to share with others. You make a beautiful product. Be well. Jim

    I never considered a pipe could be art (as I don't smoke I really don't consider pipes at all) but brother, this is absolutely a work of art. I like the stem the way it is - very unique. This was just great to watch and I am looking forward to seeing you other videos.

    It seems the older I get the more prominent my Canadian accent becomes. At 25-35 I would have told you that I don’t have an accent. At >60 I haven’t begun saying ‘eh?’ ... but I do hear the odd ‘aboot’ come out of my yap. Your accent sounded so prominent to me that I had to find your main page/bio just to confirm my suspicions. You sir, are a bona fide Canuck. I’m thinkin’ we all have it and that there must be some validity to the stereotype, eh?

I have one pipe that is very similar that I have had for about 42 years. I am an old carpenter and cabinet maker and was always curious about how a pipe was made. A Lathe is one of the few tools I have never touched, but thats gonna change. I'm retired from the fire service so smoke is in my blood. Great, great video.
