[QUOTE="skaukatt, post: 121294, member: 67"] FYI, Gunnar Weber-Prada (totemstar.com) - no affiliation other than him being a friend whom I met in Chicago this year and being a customer) sells his Icon Tamper which has an angled end rather than a flat one typical of tampers. The angled surface when used as intended, will tamp or compress the tobacco towards the back wall of the bowl (towards the airhole). This helps keep the bowl (tobacco) lit to the bottom and aids in burning all the tobacco, at least it does in my experience. Of course, all other variables as noted in other posts must also be accounted for such as proper packing, lighting and tamping as well as moisture content of the tobacco. But, it is not as complicated as it sounds once you get going and it will become routine. Lou [/QUOTE]
