So I've been building pipes recently out of natural wood and i haven't run into any problems until now, I decided to build a long pipe( about 10in to a foot) and now I don't have the equipment to put a hole all the way down the stem to a bowl, I'm not sure what to do to fix this problem, I don't have any drill bits that are eveen close to being that long
+k for help

Captain Hindsight says: You should have drilled a hole straight throught the piece then made a bowlpiece to attach.

But that's all in the past. You just need to start with a drill then use a screwdriver and slow & steadily dig through.
Nah fuck it, just buy a glass pipe.

I hope you've been boiling these pieces before sanding and putting finish on them? and i hope you've been doing those last two and not being an idiot and smoke unfinished unboiled pipes.
