Sheet metal smoking pipes

[Stumpkiller]

Wouldn't a metal smoking pipe get uncomfortably hot to handle/smoke?

As an infrequent but recurring pipe smoker I would think "Yes".

You need to hold it by the stem, taste is like smoking through a metal pipe hawk

OR you could blow bubbles out of them with a soap-and-water mixture, since apparently most if not all of the ones found were novelty toys for children, not for tobacco.

Watch out with that antler dust, it can make you VERY sick, always wear a dust mask at least

Some Asians think that certain species of antler dust will put "lead in your pencil".

And rhino horn, which is a major reason for us almost being out of rhinos.

Is antler a safe material to use for a pipe ?

Also I can't imagine what it would taste like. Burning antler.

Antler pipes if properly drilled from a quality unpithy antler section make excellent pipes. Takes a little seasoning at first but wears in nicely & last a long time. Go light on scrapping em out for sure.

No no no, It a reproduction pipe. Ive seen them before over at fronteir folk, i got it from a fellow on fb that was selling off some of his gear,its not a pot pipe or a vape watchacallit, its a simple rolled sheet iron pipe that is in the shape of a clay pipe,

Has anyone made a pipe tomahawk from a lathing (roofing) hatchet/hammer?

I agree. A good mixture of hardwood charcoal ( no petrol) and molasses before the 1st bowl will seal and sweeten the bowl. If you ever start getting an off taste, reapply
