My first freehand tamper “No. 1″

Posted by aboutpipes on April 5, 2008

Few days ago I decided I need to relax myself for a while.

I took pear wood, which some Polish pipe makers are using for pipes making.

And I cut this tamper out. When I have finished I waxed it with Carnauba .

Here is the final result of my work.


And that is my first freehand tamper now :)

As my friend, an artist said, that tamper is closer to strange sculpture than to pipe tamper  but I hope you enjoy ;)
