mmm

Oh

Oh

all right good times just cleaning out the stick

okay so as you can see goes all the way through just a little bit of a little bits of grain and stuff in there fibers I ripped up it's not a big deal no go away in time I'm going to scrape inside there a little bit more and once a flame goes in there once it will singe all those and destroy them which is what I'll do I'll put a flame on it once just to clean it out okay so I'm gonna just see all my stem fits let's push it in there thanks for looking pretty good now and just see how far fits it that's perfect right there take a quarter inch or so beautiful so now it's time to glue it in alright so let's have some pine pitch on a stone from when I made it before alright so it's a trying to liquid so I'm going to do now is just get my pipe ready to go I'm going to put some pitch on the outside of the stem push them together

all right I think that will do all right so I'm almost done so what I'm going to do now is I'm going to heat this up right here and then I'm going to slather some fresh pitch on it now I'm going to tamp it down give it a nice solid seal all right so here's where I'm at so now I'm going to just clean it up my knife all right so there's the final pitch job just cleaned it up my knife and now just to burn those little fibers inside this thing's good to go okay there actually is one more thing I forgot to mention I flattened the bottom so that way sits flat on a surface I won't roll on you I thought you can get some signs in the background I don't know what's going on I'm like 1/8 of a mile from a road already just clean all right so here's my pipe that I made myself a couple years ago and here's the pipe that I just made so like I was saying it's definitely bigger should be able to hold more material as you smoke Moen and mint out of mine all right so I call this my marshmallow pipe because with the birch you can see that it actually looks like a marshmallow roasting on the fire because it's white and it's on the end of the stick the enemy pretty cool so these are my marshmallow pipes I've been asked to show how to make them I've made a couple free gifts and this one actually is a gift as well as a good friend of mine on YouTube his channels soul mirrors and he's big into pipes so this one's gonna be going to him so I'm pretty happy with it came out pretty good
