Tamper for Meerschaum
- Thread starter MRW

I too looked for the pure Meerschaum tamper but have come up empty. Just might be a business venture here??

They take requests for pipes like most meerschaum brands. That may extend to their tampers.
This is why I mentioned it to you! A very subtle way of asking for your help! haha
...And they are all sold out on Altinay.....now I'm sad
I'm going to have to give Burak a shout to see if I can get the IMP carvers to make me a tamper.

I actually know a couple of artisan tamper makers. Mostly briar and exotic accents though.
I'd make em myself if it was allowed to import raw meer here..... ?
Would a meer tamper change color like a pipe? Probably but just slower?
Being directly exposed to that kind of heat in an enclosed chamber, it would probably color faster.
Yes, work is boring tonight.?

I’ve never had an issue using my metal 8deco. I did balk at the $80 price of the meer tamper. I do understand it’s hand carved, but still
Hello guys
Actually i was working on some unibody meerschaum tampers.
But I couldn't complete them due to workload.
Requests in the last few days have helped speed up the process.
So i completed them today.
Most probably they will be listed on my website tomorrow.
