Did the box opening today from BentMike...I'm stoked about the new African Blackwood tamper he sent my way :worship:

Thank you again Mike for this great work of art & it got plenty of use today ;-)

I didn't know what African Black Woods is so I looked it up..Turns out it's used a good bit in musical instruments..Congratulations..It's beautiful

Very nice!

 

[roadqueen]

That's a heck of a nice tamper!

Thanks all. This tamper has truly become my favorite...now I

know, I know...a tamper is a tamper, right?...but for me it is a vital

part of the enjoyment of my smoke. This tamper has a

perfect weight to just let gravity drop it into the bowl and it

provides a perfect tamp every time....if you are looking

for a great tamper perhaps give a shout out to Bentmike

and he might spin one out for ya ;-)

Thanks guys!

I agree smokindragon that the weight is perfect. Some wood tampers just feel too light unless they have a metal end cap. I liked the feel of that blackwood tamper so much I had to make myself one.
I'm glad to hear the tamp has enhanced your smoking enjoyment. ::

Very nice, African Blackwood is one of my favorite woods to work with on the lathe.

That really is a sweet turning. I like the cove in the bead and some really nice, crisp details.
