Santaroko Pipes
My name is ST Kuo, I was born in 1956 in Taiwan. I make HAND MADE
pipes under the name "Santaroko Pipes". I live in Taiwan and after
working for 28 years in IT Storage Networking (Today we call it
"CLOUD" ), I was able to retire and pursue my dream of making
pipes, I have made many pipes, used my imagination to not just
make a standard pipe, but to experiment with different designs and
materials. The knowledge I have gained from Wiki for
Pipes(Pipedia), YouTube and other sources on-line,is like having
many Mentors who are very talented Pipe makers generously share
some of their techniques, appreciations to them. There is always
something very satisfying about taking briars, bamboo and other
special materials, and transforming it into a work of art that
will give the owner a wonderful smoking experience
