In the last articles, I covered the types of tools most pipe makers will use. In this article, I'd like to do a short piece on where to get your briar. In a future article, we can go over the different qualities of briar from different regions, but, for now, let's focus on where to buy it from. Actually, first, let's take a quick look at block shapes, and then we can talk about where to get them. | In the last articles, I covered the types of tools most pipe makers will use.
