Master & Wizard - If you haven't seen some of his videos, check him out doing a freehand drill - The world lost this Master on May 23, 2011

Well that was pretty damn impressive. I don’t know why I hadn't heard about Rainer until recently but man does he make some beautiful pipes.

I was amazed watching his videos, we lost him in 2011 ( Broken Pipe: Rainer Barbi - https://pipesmagazine.com/blog/pipe-news/broken-pipe-rainer-barbi/ )

After watching these skilled master craftsman, I will never again bitch about the price. I am fortunate to have a pipe maker that makes a quality straight grain pipes without a lathe and even drilles dead on draft holes by hand it took 40 years to perfect.

watching that I thought if I tried to do this I'd have some crazy holes in my hands.
