Pipe maker in Action

[The Munt]

Watched this today and was so mesmerised I actually watched it twice.

If you have an interest in some of the techniques used in making freehand pipes and have a spare 15mins, it's worth a look.

Nice find. This video makes it look like easy to make a pipe. But reality is probably a lot of practice, plenty of patience and a crafty mind in the way you want your pipes to turn out.

Still an amazing video. I'll be watching this a few times again....

Thanks for sharing this with us!! Very enjoyable to watch!!

I have seen another similar video and it's interesting to see just how much the techniques differ.

In the other video a lathe with an interesting attachment was used to file the stem right down to the mouthpiece, whereas this guy uses a file for most of it.

Also the mortise was pushed in using a block of briar in the lathe chuck whereas here he is banging it against the table

Very similar tools and process used in both videos though. If anyone else finds these I'm always keen to watch..!
