Like his resin pipe stands, each of Abe Herbaugh's tampers feature polymer resin, with every step — from mixing the colors, casting the resin, to machining the final shape — done by his hand.

The results are as colorful as they are easy to use, and perfect to tuck into your pouch alongside your favorite pipe.
