They're great, Forest.
I'm dangerous around tools and sharp objects and handmade treats like yours delight me.
The decade rosary barked tamper is just swell, but my Episcopal rosary is short enough already.
Keep pushing yourself, pard. You've got skills.

Cool, the best ones are always the one's that you make yourself. And, it looks like you had fun.
Happy smokes!!

Very cool tampers and like cosmic said there's nothing like using something you've made yourself.

Très bien, Sir, très bien! I like best the one on the left in the first three images. What is the significance of the "P" on the bottom of the metal feet shown in the last?

Big Thanks to Everyone.
All 6 tampers are made under $1 or free + time.
From left
1st and 2nd one are tree branch and P&C pipe tool (got free with some tobacco tin order)
3rd one also tree branch and old NYC subway token.
4th and 5th one carved with Jenga game block.
6th one made e-cigarette pipe and leather wrap.
Last picture "P" is not from "peterson" acctually it's from "Pierre Cardin" metal button.
Tamper is a real pipe friend to help good smoking.

Forest, those are very cool - love number 2 from the left.
"Tamper is a real pipe friend to help good smoking." - spot on - it can really enhance the experience - its more than a tool - it really is a friend.

Nice work Forest, they look good!
I like the 3rd one from right,
very nice.
:clap:
And Jason would know.
He gifted me a tamper that became a quick friend, possessing a true warmth and soul not found in machine made products, it's really amazing to feel such a living vibration of energy buzzing within what is essentially an utilitarian object, and it actually enhances the smoking experience, for real.
Here's the tamper that Jason crafted if you never saw it,

...I was seriously overwhelmed and excited and had to make a thread about it,
the photo shoot was fun.

Ain't that the truth.

The tamper with the rosary reminds me of an old Jesuit joke.
A Jesuit novice notices another novie smoking a pipe during his evening prayer. He approaches and asks, "Did you get permission from the Novice Master to smoke while you pray?
He answered, "No, but I did get permission to pray while I smoke!"
I love the combination of the two quintessential contemplative activities as represented in your design.
