    Dude. Not only is that extremely impressive work, more than that it's quite literally heartwarming to see what you produce and the methods you use. I remember a little while ago when you asked if you should start to include the use of power tools. So so glad to see you found your own brilliant and inventive way around the issue. Your work is inspirational. A constant reminder of what effort and patience can bring. Bless you brother 🙏. Keep 'em coming! 😎

      I don't know what to say, thank you so much brother. This means a lot to any video creator, especially me since I am trying to fight against Goliath (¨David and Goliath story¨). It gives so much energy and motivation to go step further. I am extremely grateful to have such support and help in making decisions about the development of this channel. God bless you! Stay safe brother!

    I've been smoking a pipe for 43 years, and I really appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into fine pipe making. This is truly an amazing pipe of great beauty, complexity, and uniqueness. Thank you for taking the time and effort to give it a new life! You did an extraordinary job..... Especially with manual (nonpower) tooling. You exemplify what is truly meant by the word "Craftsman".
    I might suggest though...... You probably need to drill or ream that bowl a bit deeper in order to accommodate enough tobacco for a decent smoke.

    The thing about restaurations that I do myself is, that I personally don't change the structure of the item I'm working on. I feel like letting it show it's age whilst getting back functionality is what makes restaurations of older or even antique items so heartwarming for me. Bumps, scratches and markings is what gives items their souls over the years and adding new color, pieces, even major parts or sometimes the color of said items, completely takes their soul away. That's what I find in your videos, but especially in this one.

    • @FFD_Restorations
      @FFD_Restorations  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is a very thin line between repair and restoration. You lean more towards repair since you bring the item to working condition and not to the original shape. But that is completely fine, it is important that old items are saved and put in use. Thanks for the feedback! Good luck!

    Hi, Great work indeed! The pipe is made from a material called Meerschaum, a very porous chalk-like stone, which starts off brilliant white and is coloured by the tobacco.(Translation is 'Sea Foam') the braided portion is actually horse hair. these pipes come in various lengths and were sometimes decorated further by the owners. This one has had an amzing amount of use and must have been a cherished posession!

      Glad you like them! I was fortunate to learn a lot from my grandfather. He was an amazing craftsman and with limited tools built amazing stuff. Learning his approach to make things and using his tools gave me a good understanding and knowledge. Thank you for watching! Take care!

    A delight to watch, and kudos for all the non-electric and human- powered tools. Genuine craftsmanship. Music at the end: perfect.

    This is by far the most impressive pipe restoring I've ever seen.
    Beautiful, just beautiful.
    (I seriously contemplate to donate my pipe restoring equipment to charity). 😃

    I love that you only use human power tools. I noticed a Dremel head, but still powered by an old sewing machine’s belt system. Cool! Thanks

    Ein großes Lob für die Werkstatt. Du arbeitest mit Werkzeug ohne Strom. 👍Und sehr gut ausgestattet. Deine Arbeit ist sauber und korrekt. Das gefällt sehr gut. Ich habe eine sehr alte Kaffeemühle für die Wand, die dringend restauriert werden muss.

    That is a beautiful restoration. My uncle had a pipe like that. He got it in Northern Africa when he was with General Patton during WWII.

    Pipe smoker here. Nice work you did, mate! Let me give you some hints from what I gathered at that pipe: the hole on the bowl was probably caused by overuse. I'd recommend you to make a hardwood plug in there, just like modern factory corncobs do. I'm guessing the wood is olive wood (?) Instead of briar. As for the lid, that's a rain lid. You kind of turned it useless by drilling it, but it's a beautiful addition nonetheless. As for the fabric on the cloth, I think it's there again because of overuse. Beautiful piece, man. I'm envious. Keep up with the good work.

      Thanks Rodrigo, I appreciate your feedback 😀👍
      It is a briar wood, the hole is just a few mm deep, it had some purpose since it is drilled (perfectly round) at some point and it is not burned through, the lid is for giving that nice touch for display purposes.

    This is reminiscent of the historical dressmakers I watch who use antique pedal-pusher sewing machines - absolutely fascinating!
