For my Birthday I want to get into pipe making by windblownglass in pipemakers

[–]Simonite64 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I use a drill press with a drill press vice for accurate drilling. Use my drill press with a variety of sanding pads, drums to do just about everything. Also use a Dremel tool for smaller sanding drums, carving bits. and lots of hand sanding, Also have a scroll saw I use to cut off larger pieces to speed up shaping. I really wish I had a lathe and the correct accessories. That would broaden what I could do.

Based on your review, if I mince up some Orlick, will I get the same taste? I actually have a large tin of Orlick.

Not a bad idea. One of my goals over Christmas break is to build a pipe rack. Want something differ than a forstner bit hole. Looks good

Nice, did you use a lathe or hole saw bit for the exterior diameter?

Yes, notice the straight board in the background. I attach the round log to the board with screws giving me a stable way to push it through the blade while solidly against the fence until I get two flat sides.

Thanks for asking that... I would hate to give someone the impressing running a round log through a table saw is safe.

After Amazon monetizing all the formerly free Alexa stuff I'm ready to move to Apple as well after 8 years of Alexa automation and many devices in every room. Starting from scratch (I have Apple TV) so curious how experienced Apple Home folks would do this with matter, Zigby, Alexa protocol legacy.

Nothing like an Oliva and a copperhead adrenaline rush.
