'''Tamp''':  Using a tool or finger to compress the contents of the pipe bowl so as to bring unburnt tobacco into contact with the ember.
'''Tamper''':  A tool used to tamp a pipe, generally with a flat end designed for that purpose and a handle.  A tamper can be as simple as a piece of dowel or as ornate as the buyer may wish.  While it seems inconsequential, tamping is important both for the care of the pipe and the coolness of the smoke.
