The lathe is a 1982 Myford Super 7, it's a great lathe, maybe not perfect for pipe making but a pleasure to use and I love it. The chuck is a custom design created with an engineer and the pipe maker Paul Hubartt, but it has a lot of similarities to the Lamb chuck.
I am glad to see that it is noticed and appreciated. I always try to work to a high level of precision so I can achieve a well made pipe with a good fitting stem and smoking qualities.
Another great video Chris ! Lol I'm glad I read all the comments before I ask you my questions as they have already been asked and answered 😊 peace .... Michael from south Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Outstanding video! The best video I have seen on ‘UA-cam’ using machinist lathe, for making briar pipe’s. I am a woodworker but not a machinist, and have never used a machinist lathe before. But I do understand the basics? And if I can find a used, machinist lathe; this winters project will be to make myself and some good friends a handmade pipe! Just subscribed to your channel, any advice would be welcome. ~M~
Hi again. What do you call the wheel controlled side mounted device you’re using to turn the shank. I’ve just started using an Axminster Wood turning lathe and like the idea of using this instead of chisels. Thanks Chris
great video bro! I make all my Pipes freehand and am fascinated by the process of making Pipes on a lathe. when I do get a lathe, I'm going to need to figure out all the drill bits I'm going to need for the drilling. I know this is asking for a lot, and I'm cool if you say no, but can you let me know what drill bits that you used for each step? because, im not going to be able to figure out their names or even sizes or where to purchase them. And that Chuck is badass! Thanks bro! again, great video!👍
My apologies, I didn't get a notification of your comment. Shank drill is 4mm, stem drill is 3mm, mortice is 6mm but that varies of course depending on your tenon choice. Hope this helps.
I had the same question. Would you consider doing a video on the tools you use for the different steps? I'm not asking you to give away any of your secrets though.
@@caskwith I would absolutely love to get a chuck like that because my main issue is getting all of my pipes centered. I'm kind of new to all of this so that's my biggest downfall right now.
no mames , me aventé casi 24 minutos del vídeo y no vi la terminación de la pipa. y sin ofender estaba quedando muy fea. neta mejora tus vídeos si quieres que uno le de like. porque así no like.
You seem to work with much more precision than many of the people I have seen making videos on their pipe-making process. Keep up the good work.

You are inspiring! Got me going. Your camera work is spectacular also. Some music, you pick, some favorite of yours.You are really great. Thanks!
Nice Work Chris. That Chucks Pivot point is pricless. Thanks for Sharing.
Enjoyable and educating. This video leads us to deeper understanding of pipes we clench in our teeth everyday.
Love to watch these. Great to get a better understanding of the process of pipe making.
Very cool Askwith! You make that look too easy! Sweet smokes my friend! Mike TPC

very good work.
nice video chris..
Do you drill and tap the tenon?

If you get no answer, try with jalanpipes. I'm sure he will give you all the answers.

Where did you find that chuck?
+Stanley Potter It was custom made to my design.
I had the same question. Would you consider doing a video on the tools you use for the different steps? I'm not asking you to give away any of your secrets though.
P CC That's an idea for a future video. It seems every pipe maker though has their own preference.

No finished product?
+Glen Nicholson Many more hours work after this part :)
I tried to listen to the background music, and failed.
