RE: pre-drilled briar

[ED_X]

Gentlemen:
I'm ready at trying my hand at building a pipe and am starting with a pre-drilled block, anyone have a suggestion for which supplier has the best blocks? Or is the easiest to deal with? Or has the most precise drilling?

Hope the treats you well,

Ed

Go to Mark Tinsky. Here is his website (I sent the page about his pipe kits). I started with one of Mark's and couldn't have been happier. My first pipe was ugly, but she smokes great.

I'll second Mark Tinsky. He'll sell you a quality piece of briar that has been properly drilled.

Mark another one for tinsky. He worked with me to give me the size I wanted and was about a week and half from order to door. Good stuff. Will post pics once my laptop is back.

Another vote for Tinsky. :cheers: His kits are great.

I may be the odd man out, but I say go for Mark Tinsky.

I got one of the generic ones that P&C sells on their site and man what a disappointment. Wish I'd started with a TINSKY.
