FAQ's:
"What type of glue do you use?"
I use Titebond Type II Dark Wood Glue. It's the same as the regular Type II, but dyed to dry a dark caramel color. I think this might be the best choice for exotic hardwoods since they tend to be darker than most domestics.
"What type of finish do you use?"
I use Salad Bowl Finish, which is not only non-toxic, but food-safe as well. In conjunction with that, I try to sand up to 600 grit whenever possible, which will give you a better finish.
"What about using [some type of wood] as a bowl instead of Cherrywood or Briar?"
I take my technical cues from the tobacco pipe industry, and Briar is king with Cherrywood being second. Aside from Cherrywood, I also use Gaboon Ebony occasionally, but that's it. I don't currently have personal experience with any other type of wood for bowls. Check out this link for acceptable alternative woods to use as bowls: pipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_Woods_Used_For_Pipe_making
"How do you clean a wooden pipe?"
With a pipe cleaner, of course! If you'd like to harvest resin, you can do that with paper clips and such so long as you're careful not to dig into the wood; that would give you splinters in your resin, and that's no fun. I *DO NOT* recommend digging around the bowl for resin as this might disturb the "char layer" (the burned interior of the bowl) which is essential to a prolonging the lifespan of your pipe.
"Where do you get your wood?"
I've been getting it from Woodcraft.com, but I think I'll go through www.bellforestproducts.com/ the next time I get wood. Bell Forrest seems to have better prices.
Hey gary I have a very important question. Could you make a pipe out of a standard piece of 2x4?
pipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_Woods_Used_For_Pipe_making
What are your thoughts on bone as a bowl/stem material?
@@Th3Class1c that wouldn't be a terrible idea. Pine is a very soft wood so it wouldn't be durable enough. And pine resin is very flammable. I make shavings of pine to start my campfires. Not to mention pine is very often treated with chemicals. Horrible for the lungs.
@@stanervin6108 I've done that. I wouldn't reccomend by way of breathing in bone dust or the burning bond itselt since bone tends to be pretty brittle. Antler isn't a bad choice however for a stem but not the bowl.
I'm really impressed that you were able to make this video while stoned out of your gourd
I am man of many talents. /bow
something tells me these pipes aren't meant for tobacco use
Devin Petersen shhhhh, child.
Weed pipe base on the design :)
Yeah, I came to see pipe making, and I see bowl making.
Devin Petersen, shhhh...
Devin Petersen lol
At first, I wondered why you would make a carb pipe for tobacco smoking.
Then I realized...
+NarlepoaxIII Word. Well spotted.
NarlepoaxIII around 4:50 notice the pill bottle....I do the same lol.
Gary Harmon I just made a pipe out of elk antler now to just get it finished. So far it looks awesome for my first attempt at it, on a random spur of the moment "let's make something idea".
Lol yup !!!
Perfectly legal tobacco, mate.
Nice green tobacco that's my fave to hahahaba
Whacky tobaccy
@@janieblair3444 i see you have been around looking
That 'ol wacky tobacky
Well that tobacco must have gotten to your brain because it's spelled "too"
Way better than tabaco. Feels better and it's better for you
You had me when the video started and you scolded the bad pipe makers. THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO HEAR, DAMMIT! I'm in.
i love everything about this video
+GL HF 😀
This should have more views.
very well made, presentation and all.
props to you man!
+TheMaddGodd 😊Much thanks! I got some more vids in the works so keep an eye out.
Gary's Wares
great video I'm really curious on how your going to do that rotten cherry pipe please keep us post on that
+Trevor Williamson Thanks, and yeah, I'll post something. Although, the blank isn't rotten. That's a really big naturally occurring knot; it's usually the place on the tree where a branch starts growing. I love stuff like that.
The pipe I'm going to make out of that blank is *hopefully* going to be sold to a tobacco shop. As such, it's got to be really, really good, and I'm not quite at that level yet. I might get to it this summer.
+Gary Harmon how about a pipe made out of pine?
Im the 69th like lol
dude you're fucking awesome
+Sneak Well thanks a bunch!
I've been looking for a tutorial for a carb pipe for a while, this was absolutly perfect, well shot, well narrated, simple to follow and no BS filler to stretch out run time.
My only critique is gluing the chamber to the bowl as it makes it nearly impossible to adequately clean it, I'll be making a press fit when I make mine.
incredible video over all.
Made one with a machete, a nail, a hammer and a saw
Cool
THANK YOU for this wonderful video. I have made a mini pill bottle pipe and a mini carb pipe so far. What I love is how you teach the basic concepts that make a good pipe, and then the few designs. There is so much room for creativity and improvising, but the sketch with dimensions was great to get me started.
Thank you for this! I started making pipes specifically for cannabis, it is a lot harder to find good videos that are not focused on tobacco.
This was excellent instructional. Especially like how you showed the steps at 9:30
Thanks for sharing.
+OnceUponAPipe Thanks for the feedback. I'm just doing what I love!
Love the fact i can come back and glance at the thumbnail and know what to do, best step by step guide, good work
This was such a fun, simple, straightforward video. Subscribed.
Thanks for the explanation, I was ready to make my own pipe. Thanks God I saw your video! I didn't know anything about shapes, woods, types of pipes, and tools. Thanks good man.
I'm just getting into woodworking. This was very informative and to the point. Jam on man!
+LAIDBACKMANNER Awesome! Glad I could help!
I've been interested in starting a woodworking shop and business, and pipes were one of the things I wanted to do. This is a great video for information. Its very useful and very much appreciated
You Sir will never understand how much I tryley appreciate you breaking this down barney style. I'm stoned and this really made 100% chance and left me with no questions. This video left me the desire to buy you a case of beer but only if we drink it in my workshop.
Cheers Man, a great video. I'd love to see the tobacco pipe finished. Good work. Easy and straight forward demeanour. Respect.
"For the other pipes i made." lol This is a great video. Appreciate the info and the wisdom this man provides. Good job.
This is so wholesome, thank you for making this
The best video I've seen. Great work.
Brilliant ! Love the opening. Simple , fun and informative
First time seen it and the intro captivated me right away.
Hey man I loved this video! I’ve been smoking for about 4 years now and you still taught me some stuff I didn’t know about pipes; I’m gonna try to make one!
Finally a decent video on pipe making, thanks dude you're the best.
+Abdelilah Amraoui No problem! Thanks for watching!
Love the way you explain this!
This was a highly enjoyable video.
he's got green in that pipe LOL someone's doing this right at least
Thanks you a million! Awesome video!!! You definitely drop tons of golden nuggets...
Great channel for a smoker like me. Thanks for showing me all this, wouldn't have known about wood selection and such before now.
Thank you especially for the diagrams, very thorough!
+Rose Wheeler No problem!
thank you, this video was very helpful
I loved this vlog and learned a lot. Thanks so much ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I believe that is a cove router bit that is missing it's bearing. Very informative video! Thank you Gary!
There are some without bearing, like dremell's ones
Dylan's DIY Workshop I just came from your channel
Cove bit with a pilot
Thanks for making this video. I'm going to attempt making my first tobacco pipe as a gift for a friend soon and will be referencing this video often as I work on my project.

Excellent special effects!
Great video! Exactly what I was looking for. 👍👍👍
Great video! Much appreciated!

MELHOR JORNAL DO BRASIL !!! SO FERA
have not been this entertained all week
Gary, I don't smoke at all but love artisan work. you do a very nice job, especially highlighting the basics. It has inspired me to try my hand at it. have you made an vids of regular sized tobacco pipes? keep up the good work....
Love the intro I knew by the music and school movie theme I was going to learn something
We all need somone like this in our lives, very smart and knowledgeable with pipes and green tabacoo
Love the video! Cheers!
Video was great. Reading comment was good time also! Been wanting to make one, video was helpful.
+Joseph Coonrod Thanks! Good luck with your own pipes!
Nice video, help me so much
Either I’m high or this dude is the stoner version of Alton brown lol
Hahaha
Why not both?
Skott Lee well at this very moment it is both lol
yes.
Tyler Stone lol
You're freaking delightful. Thanks so much for a great vid, subscribed in hopes that you're still at it.
Appreciate the info on alternative woods. We have a farm where all the white oak and iron oak is getting harvested to make way for black walnut. Plenty of stumps to get material from for a while.
The "material". awesome video yo!
My god, that intro was awesome!! Now watching the rest of it, as far as I am now (like half way) its very good! I dont know why i have interests in making a wooden pipe because I dont smoke at all, but it seems like an awesome project :)
beautiful stuff man.
Really dig the chamber idea.
Dude. Thank you!!
very nice good work would love one
+Corey a Well thanks! And you can totally get one on my site if you like: garyswares.com/home/products-page/
Thanks Gary! Im a 13 year old pipe maker and your video really helped me a lot since I am new. Now I have practiced and gotten better thanks to your advice and now make them as gifts or to sell or use.
Right on, man! I’m glad I could help you out with something you like doing! What I love about wooden pipes is that they’re functional art that doesn’t shatter like glass if they get mishandled. I’d eventually like to make something mechanical out of wood. Future content, future content.
But look, as an adult I have to say the following: please don’t smoke out of any of your pipes for another 5 years or so. 🚭 I’m sure you’ve seen my wrist tattoo and that’s serious business. The last cigarette I smoked is 5 years behind me and I’ll never have another if I can help it. I’ve in fact given up pipe tobacco as well. My doctor has actually diagnosed me with respiratory issues that are no doubt related to cigarettes. Breathing is good, cigarettes are bad.
I don’t regret cigarettes, but that’s primarily because I was 19 when I started smoking and it was a conscious decision that no one pressured me into. In fact, the guy I got my first cigarette from begged me not to do it. I’d ask the same of you. Please don’t smoke. 🚭
@@GarysWares I'm glad you're speaking up and helping. I actually have only had a smoke from them about 2 or 3 times, as I enjoy making them and engraving them more than using them. And when I do use them its just green tea. It tastes fine and is good for testing. Thanks!
Thanks for introducing me to a future Hobby
I wanna make a long stem pipe and have been doing the research on youtube when I ran into your tutorial. I have to say, nice job. Not only did you provide awesome information but you did it in a manner that was entertaining to watch. ALL the other videos have some stuffy dude that bored the hell out of me. I'm now a Gary fan and can't wait to binge watch the rest of your videos. Keep up the good work.
+Greg Betts Well thanks a lot! Yeah, I mainly made this video because there wasn't much out there that I found very helpful. I'm glad you like my vids; I always love it when I find a channel like that.
That's so crazy this is exactly how I made my pipes too. :D
That mouthpiece “mistake” made it like 20x cooler I want it
Bad ass video man really enjoyed it
I like how he measures the pipe out, but i also find it cool when people take a block of wood, and just carve it down to make a really unique pipe
the last carb pipe burned my thumb good to learn what i was doing wrong. thanks Gary.
Hay Gary i like the way you make your pipes I'm a pipe person and i like to at lest try and make one or two but i like to thank you for putting it on you tude so cool.
I liked the video. Have a large pile of scrappy, gnarly, birdseye ribboned cherry chunks (from splitting a tree for firewood) for future craft projects like this pipe. Gonna have fun with this.
Cool beard dude. Cooler video. Thanks, KC.
Que bien explicado que está. Muy buena maestro
Gracias!
Awesome video. Glad you left in the part with the mouthpeice at the wrong angle that cracked me up!! Good Fix!!
That tool or bit is call a ball-nose counter bore or (c’bore) and the thing on the end that follows your first hole is called a Pilot and the pre hole is (you guessed it) a pilot hole. That is called an out pouring of useless information that I have acquired during my 30plus years as a Tool and Die maker. One last thing you have a awesome channel. Good thing you were not around during my HIGH school years or not! I could have made some good cash selling them to my classmates. Anyways keep the videos coming
I have Ben making pipes for 12 years, been very fortunate to have gained guidance from Shultie, Tinsky, West, Marshbanks, and emails with Renee Barbie.
You have a solid foundational video, looking forward to your continued success.
Ps: Oak is a NO! Release toxins
hey buddy, what was the intro to this video, the song is beautiful and amazing craftsmanship!
I made a pipe while I was deployed and the way that I made the bowl was to take an old spade bit and ground it to the shape I wanted and sharpened it. Worked perfect
Thank you for this tutorial, and keep up the great work! I just wanted to find some tobacco pipe idea, and you gave me more :D but I stay with tobacco :D big up from Hungary man!
Im a new carpenter and I am super exited to be able to try and make a pipe in my free time.
Just made my 1st pipe from cherry. Came to this video to find out how or if you finish it with oil. I almost went and bought one but remembered I have a wood shop and ton of scrap cherry! Haha great vaccum test!
Haha..I love your honesty!!
Love the intro..!
