Using a block of balsa and an Xacto knife I made some Savenilli style pipe filters. They work well reducing tongue bite, providing cooler smoke yet not reducing draw too much. They're great for anyone that smokes fast or wet.
After first use portion of the filter was nearly charred from heat, had slightly expanded and changed colors. It's too early for me to claim the blast filter improves taste. More testing is needed
The filter should have grooves on the side as to not restrict draw. Copying Savenilli design is helpful.
Length of each filter is 40 mm.
Added photos of 6 mm and 9 mm filters.
