[QUOTE="great balsa fire, post: 186366, member: 2218"] I've been reading up on the balsa filter from Savinelli. I have a Savinelli pipe that can use the 6mm filter. I had been using the medico paper filter in it but wanted to try the balsa. Well.... I couldn't bring myself to buy the balsa filter from Savinelli, they cost too much I think. So, what i did, was I bought some balsa sticks, that are about 3 feet long, and about the size of a wooden matchstick, squared at the end. I found that if I bunch 3 of these up they fit right in the 6mm filter hole, and I just cut them to appropriate length. This works well, really dried out the smoke, and didn't affect the draw too badly, still smooth. Now, I have a lifetime supply of Balsa filter material. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
