Creating oak pipes for my online store begins with selecting the right branches from oak trees. Once the branches are chosen, they are carefully dried to achieve the ideal moisture content for crafting. The next step involves cutting the branches into manageable sections and hollowing out the core to create the pipe's chamber. Each piece is meticulously shaped and sanded by hand to ensure smoothness and uniformity, enhancing both aesthetics and functionality. Finally, the pipes are finished with natural oils or waxes to bring out the oak's inherent beauty and provide a protective coating.
