|
|
here is a pipe I made yesterday and finished this morning. I don't really smoke or anything, just got a wild hair up my butt to make one. Thought it would be a cool group project!! I am planning on making some more out of mesquite to sell on my website.

Corn cobs are good, you have to dry them quickly though or else they will rot out before you can even make a pipe. I bet covering it in a bunch f salt would do it! _________________ "Respect is the one thing money can't buy, it takes a long time to earn, but can be lost in the blink of an eye" |

bake the corn cob at a low heat in the oven like you do to dry herbs _________________ “I am a soldier, I fight where I am told, and I win where I fight."
