What size drill bit do you use to drill the hole leading from the steam to the bottom of the tobacco chamber?

[@MassisPipes]

A 4mm usually :-)

[@dixieracer00]

Thank you!

[@seacitadel]

Very nice. What material is the stem on this build? The way it peeled off on the lathe makes me think it's something synthetic like delrin, but it has a convincing (faux?) wood grain.

[@MassisPipes]

It is ebonite, made by SEM in Germany. Ebonite is a form of vulcanised rubber :-)

[@robertcornelius3514]

Hi. Do you remember what kind of material you used for the stem?

[@glenabergel4615]

Hi, please could you tell me the name of your 2 jaw chuck, and where can I get one from? Thank you

[@robertblanks9602]

Most of my pipes are sandblasted 👍 You guys make it look so easy on here. But I am totally aware 1. Experienced ☑️ 2. Good tools/ machines ☑️ 3. Imagination ☑️

[@roflstomps324]

Now I want a pipe. I don't even smoke.

[@najeyrifai293]

Could you please give more detail on the sandblasting. The effect looks awesome and I want to try it myself 🙂. What medium, pressure, etc

[@MassisPipes]

Every pipemaker has their own process. Some simply blast once with a standard glass bead medium, others blast in up to 7 stages all with different media & pressures... The gist of it is this: get a BIG compressor (250L+ tank, 2 stage, capable of 8+bar and with a net air delivery of over 400L), any sandblasting cabinet (harbor freight will do) and gun, and a bag of fine glass bead (40 - 70µm is what I started with) . That should get you going, the rest is experimentation. And remember that every piece of briar blasts differently. Some will pretty much melt away, others will barely show any pattern at all at first.

什么材质

[@jetcitysinatra7300]

How do you go about picking your woods? Is there a place you can go to get it or can it be made out of any wood. . .

[@MassisPipes]

90% of all pipes are made from briar, bought from specialized briar mills in the Mediterranean. Occasionally, other woods are used such as olive, morta, apple, pear, cherry and maple.

Awesome video. As a newb learning watching these is super interesting and helpful. Thanks so much for sharing the process and of course beautiful pipe! Best wishes.

[@MassisPipes]

Welcome to the hobby, and good luck in your pipemaking endeavors :-)

[@Gigizverka47]

Hi, can I ask what is the chuch jaw that you clamp in the biggwr jaw?

[@MassisPipes]

It's a Oneway woodturning chuck with briar jaws on it

[@Gigizverka47]

@@MassisPipes thank you on a quick response? Any model in particular?

[@MassisPipes]

@@Gigizverka47 it's actually called the Oneway Chuck. Not the talon or the stronghold, just the Oneway :-)

[@Gigizverka47]

@@MassisPipes :) ok thanks! I have a axminster one that I chuck i a bigger metal lathe one but it slips right out.. dangerous..

[@SnowHunter44]

nice little sitter, By the way the link to your website may be down, had to type it into the browser... now I am exhausted, LOL

[@impulsemodular]

nice work, what kind of round needle file is that you're using for the draught hole on the stem?

[@MassisPipes]

It's a kemper zig zag tool, ment for pottery. Vermont freehand sells them, Rawkrafted probably does too.

[@impulsemodular]

@@MassisPipes thanks

[@The-man-with-the-many-pipes]

Hello! Very nice Video thx ✌

[@dingo5208]

I was not aware piipes had names. Is that from the style or where the burl comes from?

[@MassisPipes]

They're names for classical shapes: billiard, Dublin, author, prince, Liverpool, Canadian, belge, pot, chimney, ... To name a few. The classical British pipe is a billiard, the classical Irish one a Dublin. The briar itself is always Mediterranean, it doesn't grow in Dublin ;-)

What material do you clean the sandpaper disc with?

[@MassisPipes]

it's a rubber stick made specifically for this purpose. You can find them on amazon for a few dollar: www.amazon.com/Cleaning-Eraser-Stick-Abrasive-Sanding/dp/B000H69U7G

Thank you very much! I tried silicone - it turned out to be a bad idea) Good luck with your work!

I honestly don't know what you mean?

[@igorantsiferov5716]

@@MassisPipes He points out that the smoking pipe must be cut by hand, without using a lathe. It is likely that he thinks that smoking pipes are made using the old- fashioned method , with a minimum of tools . But nowadays , either smoking pipes of a complex author's shape are made in this way , or souvenir pipes without the idea of smoking them ( for example , smoking pipes of North American Indians , calumet ) , or homemade pipes in regions where it is difficult to purchase them .

[@MassisPipes]

@@igorantsiferov5716 I figured as much :-) Then again, lathes have been around for centuries... The first (hand driven) lathes were used by the Egyptians as early as 1300 BC!
