making your own pipe is fun. some glass pieces are nice, but it's sometimes a much cooler feel to smoke out of a wood tobacco pipe, and more satisfying to smoke from a really NICE pipe you made with your own hands.

that's a thread i made a while back with pics of some wooden pieces i made. i think there are sort of some instructions/materials on there, but eventually i'll have to start a "How To" thread with step by step instructions and pics. good luck with whatever kinda pipe you choose to make!
