Jared. Once again, I'd like to thank you for taking the time to post these videos. I can truly say that I look forward to each and every one that you post. They are fresh, honest, and truly informative.

Thank you so much! Always informative and educational! I feel like I'm one step closer to start making my own pipes!

Thanks for sharing interesting

Great videos! I appreciate the way you explain these things, kinda like I'm hanging out and watching you work.
Question, what do you use for a grinder/shaper? I finished my first hobby pipe and I wish I had something better to shape it than my hf belt/disk sander.

Hi, Jared. Great videos.
What grit do you use for your rough shaping?

[@jaredcoles2589]

Clay Painter I use 24 grit @3600 rpm.
