[QUOTE="Nick, post: 23678, member: 255"] Cooke drills his pipe's draft holes a bit smaller than average - 3.5 mm. Also, he makes the slots in the bit so that it has the same surface area as a 3.5 mm circle. The idea being that any dramatic changes in the area of the smoke channel will creat turbulence. Fascinating stuff really. My question, and this is an aside really, is does he make the bits so that the whole length of the smoke channel has that same ares? that would be pretty cool. He'd have to do some careful shaping to maintain that area. I've never smoked one, but i hear they're great. Make sure you get there early, maybe even get a table just so as you can get inside ahead of the crowd. His pipes sell before 10:30 am usually. [/QUOTE]
