My first steps...
Posted: Mon Oct 30, 2006 7:23 pm
Greetings to all,
First of all let me express my gratitude towards all participants on this great forum.
Big up! for the moderators.and everyone sharing knowledge
There a winter full of reading the treads ahead for me.
Beeiing a young father I picked up the art of smoking pipe and trew away the sigaret as a token of an important change in my life
I consider myselve to be a creative person and with determination I will learn the noble art of pipe making,with great help from this forum,offcourse.
Also I like to appologise for the weird kinda english you'll be reading in my posts. But aslong that we can understand one and other it will do.
I live in Belgium and right now I am building myself an working place to put my tools,make music smoke and hopefully one day MAKE pipes.
I just couldn't wait and made my first Tamper,I needed it.
And made one from African ebony with a sanddisk
It work well but it can get a whole lot better.
After a finish with that wax,Carbanau,something..
On the net i saw many tampermakers have an metal part at the bottom
of theire tampers attached,bras,messinf,cupper,all kinds of steel
My Question is how does it's fixed? the metal to the wood or other
Do they use a kind of glue?
Or is it screwed together?
Can anyone here helpe me out with this?
I would like to make another tamper with a piece of cupper at its base.
And if someone likes and can tell me how to add pictures here I will put a picture of my first steps.
Kind regards
Frank
