ABSTRACT:
A pipe tool and method of filling. The pipe tool comprises a handle rigidly attached to a spade at an angle of approximately 225 degrees. A cross-sectional shape of an upper extreme of the spade is that of an arc of approximately 70 degrees, and a lower extreme whose shape is that of a spherical section. A cross-sectional thickness of said spade decreases linearly from the spade upper extreme to the spade lower extreme. The handle has a tamper which is shaped like a half-circle. The method of filling comprises the steps of inserting the pipe tool into a bowl tobacco bore so that the spade nests against and covers a bowl smoke bore mouth; filling the bowl tobacco bore to overflowing with tobacco; tamping the tobacco in a front of the bowl tobacco bore only downwards at an angle of at least 45 degrees to a bowl tobacco bore vertical axis; repeating the first two steps until a level of tobacco over the bowl smoke bore mouth is 1/4-1/2 inches above the bowl smoke bore mouth; removing the pipe tool from the bowl tobacco bore; filling the bowl tobacco bore to overflowing with the tobacco; tamping the tobacco in the front of the bowl tobacco bore only downwards at an angle of at least 45 degrees to a bowl tobacco bore vertical axis; and repeating the previous two steps until a level of tobacco over the bowl smoke bore mouth is slightly below a top edge of the bowl tobacco bore.
