How you got into pipe making: I haven't ever made a pipe of my own and have been interested for some time. I have a son in college and he has begun to smoke a pipe. In that shared joy, we have talked about the beauty of pipes and their design intricacies. That has spurred a smoldering desire to create. I have always loved woodworking and working with my hands, so it seems to fit. I'm excited to get started. Thank you in advance for your patience and input in my apprenticeship.
