Part 7 - Briar Pipe Making Start to Finish Final Video

In this final video of the series I buff the pipe with tripoli compound then buff with carnuba wax and show the final pipe. Check out the new 2021 Pipe Making Video Series can be found below.

[@badcanada]

As someone looking to get into pipe making, I found your series enjoyable and comprehensive. Un grand merci from Canada!

[@kraigseder]

Nothing better than a nice clean bright white t-shirt to polish up a pipe. That's probably why I don't have too many nice clean bright white t-shirts. Thanks for watching bud, and I just subbed your channel. I'll be checking out your videos tonight. Take care.

[@ExtravagantHammilton]

for someone who claims to be a novice you make producing art like this look easy! I'm very impressed. you should start numbering them and somehow marking them as your own. If you keep selling them i suspect people will begin to collect your work.

[@joeandmollysantamour]

Great series and a great looking pipe. It could not have been easy for you to make the video, but your patience paid off with a great "how to" for pipe lovers. Thanks for taking the time and happy smoking.

[@SteveL781]

Great job! Really enjoyed seeing the whole process

[@kraigseder]

Thank you and thanks for watching. I'm glad you got something out of it.

[@daedalusknives]

Great tutorial, I was just curious about the process and ended up watching all the segments until 2am. Lol. Fine craftsmanship brother.

[@kraigseder]

Shane Peavy Thank you very much. I'm glad you liked the videos. Take care.

[@MrSameeg]

Thanks I watched all of your video's on the making of this pipe, it reminded me of the story! "The ugly duckling" i.e from a lump of briar to one of "Elegance"

[@kraigseder]

I'm glad you liked the videos. Thank you!

[@Lineman12.4]

well, i sat here for about an hour and a half watching all 7 videos. and now i would like to buy one of your pipes. thank you sir for keeping me busy while the wife is away at work.

[@kraigseder]

Thanks Adam. I'm glad you found the videos interesting. I just make pipes as a hobby and have another big project going in my free time making a wooden carved pipe rack. Once I'm done with that I'll start making pipes again.

[@Lineman12.4]

Well I will definitely subscribe and keep an eye out for when you start back up!

[@sapphosforge]

Thank you Kraig, this video series helped me get a reality check on my interest in pipe making... meditating deeper now on the whole situation here.

[@jbafternoonpiper404]

Just finished all 7 of your videos. I tried to make a couple of pipes a while ago without a lot of success. I watched videos to get some ideas and try it again. Your videos are by far the best ones I've watched. You did a great job and made a very nice looking pipe. The poker is one of my favorites. I'm getting excited to try it again. Thanks!

[@fahmylina123]

Great fun to watch these 7 videos in a row. Like a pro a fan made his own fine pipe from scratch to finish. Such a pipe would cost up to 200 US $ of the market place, however the real cost would be something like 12 US $. Adding similar amount for the manufacturing the total would be something like 24 US $ - in 2016. Its market price is simple 10 times more since not everyone has these machines and experience. Very nice set of episodes anyway. Thanks a lot.

[@kraigseder]

Briar is an extremely hard wood and very fire resistant but it still needs a carbon layer to protect the bowl. What I do, and many do before our fist smoke in a new pipe is to add a carbon layer by applying a mixture of 50/50 honey & water to the inside of bowl. The honey water mixture soaks into the walls of the bowl letting some of the sugars to penetrate into the wood. Once it dries your first smoke will turn the sugar into a carbon layer to protect the briar. It will then build over time.

[@jacobyhale]

That was awesome! Thank you for posting. I guess I know what my next hobby is...

[@kraigseder]

Hi Jacoby. I'm glad you liked the videos. I made these videos about 5 years ago so how I make my pipes now as changed a bit. The main difference now is that I make my own stems and I have a little more experience. You'll definitely enjoy pipe making as a hobby. Take care.

[@jbafternoonpiper404]

@@kraigseder I just watched the seven part pipe video. How about a video on making a stem?

[@kraigsederquist2231]

@@jbafternoonpiper404 I will be doing a video on making a Danish style pipe and making a stem from scratch will be part of it.

[@swedemichigan3624]

Great video series. I've always wanted to try my hand at making a pipe and I appreciate your effort at showing how to do it.

[@thetopicala]

Never done a pipe, but may be some day after I have watched this series 1-7 again. Really nice videos. Thanks for your efforts making this tutorial.

[@criticsview]

This series was extremely well done. Thanks for taking the time to share your skill.

[@corytersmitte3284]

Looks like a great solid pipe, nice work. Thanks for the step-by-step tour, very interesting. Would have been great to see you pack and light your first bowl in that one!

[@David43515]

Great videos. (Yes, all 7) And you may call yourself a novice, but I would say that`s as fine a pipe as I`ve seen anywhere.

[@drohegda]

I have always wonder how they make a pipe and i thank you very much for the videos,i can sense you are a patient person which help i imagine a lot.So well done.thanks again.

[@skipmiller650]

Great series! Fun to watch from the beginning block to the end result. You make it look like anybody could do it. Thanks...

[@basiliobasilio]

I watched all the videos from start to finish. Amazing work! Thanks for making the video. Now to watch more.

[@johnmay3266]

Well, that was really something. Didn't expect that at the beginning. You've got me hooked. I have all of the tools, so thanks for another shop project. Might want to look into a flex shaft for your Dremel they're really nice. Sorry to be so late to the show!

[@robertruopoli9736]

love your work..as a wood carver i found the dremel to heavy to use..they sell an attachment with a long ,thin,easy to hold "dentist like" cable that the dremel bits attach to .I hang the dremel body above my work bench and work like a gentleman...

[@DavidTheHypnotist]

That is an awesome pipe! Beautiful!!!

[@esferasderio]

Congratulations and thank you so much for your time!

[@Bl4nk0_]

That was absolutely amazing! I was wondering if the machines and tools you used in the videos were too expensive. Can you tell more or less how much a novice pipemaker need to invest altogether on the machinery? Thank you! Keep making beautiful pipes!

[@Brisco1983]

Thank you for this tutorial. Great looking pipe.

[@billgreco9396]

Wow, this video series is the best explained, demonstrated and comprehensive video package I've yet seen. Thank you so much for sharing. You keep calling yourself amateur and novice, but from what I've seen and learned from you is very well done and better than most 'experienced' pipe maker videos I've seen. I'd love to see more. BTW - beautiful pipe!

[@kraigseder]

Thank you very much! I truly appreciate it and I'm glad you found it helpful. A few months back I made a new 7 part pipe making series with how I make pipes now, years later from the first video series. This new series does use a metal lathe for drilling but I show all of the other techniques I've been using recently. kzbin.info/aero/PLdVI9G9_bD_AkYlW6TFXJxaMC8J2YOfWz

[@Benk493]

Beautiful! Thanks for the video.

[@Linedanger]

What a thorough and complete record of all the stages. I ordered my first mini lathe today and this has been a great help. After I do all the beginner stuff, my long term aim is to make pipes. Maybe E-pipes too. Thank you

[@kraigseder]

I am needing a good small lathe myself for turning the bow, shank and the stem. Good luck and have fun with the pipe making. It's just a hobby for me but it's a lot of fun. I bet there would be a good market for quality e-pipes made of pretty woods. Since it's an e-pipe you could go with woods that would be dangerous to use in a traditional tobacco pipe.

[@daddyrich2982]

Your finished pipe looks great!

[@alexnorton]

Thank you for taking the time to make these. The videos were very thorough and informative and I got a lot out of them!

[@kraigseder]

I'm very glad you got something out of the videos!

[@stevenb203]

Awesome Kraig! Loved the videos!

[@johnholmes9501]

Thanks for the great videos 1-7 on pipe making. I want to try it myself and your videos were extremely helpful

[@roobbbyyyy123]

i am not into pipes but let me tell you that looks just gorgeous. very well done sir and keep up the good work :)

[@kingcornhollio5242]

These videos were really amazing! I'm wanting to make pipes and you really helped out. Thank you so much.

[@towboattrell]

[@BeardlessPipeSmoker]

Hey bro, these series were absolutely amazing. I seriously enjoyed all of them. Thank you so much for your efforts to put this together. This I'm sure will be like a guidebook for all the new pipe makers out there. Cheers BPS

[@easycharlie6739]

Pretty neat. It really inspires me .

[@Blueshirt38]

Thank you so much for taking the time to film this, and make it into such an extensive series. I'm sure working around a camera setup the whole time wasn't the easiest thing ever. I have recently gotten the bug to start working my hand at wood again, and my recent attempts have gone well, so I wanted to try out making a pipe, and now I think I have enough information to make make my first pipe, thanks to you.

Thank you so much for this series . I'm less intimidated now as I'm thinking about starting the daunting task of pipe making. Cheers and thanks for the enlightenment !

[@hobie1dog]

Just finished the videos, been wanting to know about the process for years now. Thanks

[@OWWNN]

Wow I am really impressed that is a beautiful pipe , I watched the making from start to finish and was blown away to see the final piece . I am excited to see if I come close to making a pipe as sweet as the one I watched you make . I have never made a pipe but am excited to try . I would love to own one of yours pipes some day. And maybe one day I will post one of mine lol

[@natehall8730]

These videos are really awesome man, you've inspired me.

[@kraigseder]

Thank you very much and hope it helps you get your start. I started out by restoring a few old Dunhill's and then saw a pipe kit on one of the websites. After shaping that first pipe I was hooked. Take care.

[@CraigOlson]

Wow. This was an excellent video series. You made a beautiful pipe. Forget the haters and the armchair critics. Keep at your craft. You are doing phenomenal​.

[@CraigOlson]

BTW, id buy it for the "right price". I love poker pipes. It's beautiful​.

[@kraigseder]

Thank you very much Craig! I really appreciate it. Take care buddy.

[@kraigseder]

Wow, I'm glad someone finally called me on that. Not sure how I repeatedly missed that. I've been misspelling it for the last year. Thank you.

[@kraigseder]

That's great to here Nate! I'd like to see your first pipe once it's done. Just jump in and have fun! Take care.

[@fordcountrypipesmoking9255]

Great videos man, I love this pipe. I'll prob watch this a few more times im wanting to try to start making pipes. Might first start with staining unfinished pipes but eventually want to start from scratch. Thanks again

[@lgkitting]

I watched all 7 - thoroughly enjoyed your instructional. Thanks so much for sharing your talents.. Grant

[@mhardi686]

Great videos and beautiful pipe. Thanks for sharing.

[@FuckOffGrasshopper]

great videos, great pipe

Thank you very much. I really appreciate it and I'm glad you found it informative. Have fun making a pipe and feel free to do a video response of it when you're done.

[@basselbaltagi2994]

I love your work...you did a pretty good job

[@kraigseder]

Thank you! I buy my briar blocks in lots of about 10 to 20 on eBay. I just received 10 blocks in the mail yesterday and with shipping it was $65. Better quality blocks with straight grain are going to run you more but I've been happy with the general quality of these.

[@Grandpurpose]

Great job. I really enjoyed that.
