Meet The Pipemaker
My name is Sebastian Heck.
The passion for pipes and the way of life that comes with it - "deceleration" - grabbed me many years ago. At some point, smoking pipes led to restoring some heirlooms. And finally to some initially very "experimental" pipe building, with the simplest of means. I now have a fully equipped pipe workshop in which I can carry out all the steps (including sandblasting) myself.
I make pipes as a side business. In my main job and calling, I serve as a pastor of a Protestant church. I do both with equal dedication and passion.
I particularly enjoy the process of tailoring the product (or work of art?) to the future smoking connoisseur.
