I've been attempting to attract my woodworking youngest brother to become interested in making a pipe. He either got fed up with the links and pics I was sending or he got bit a little, cuz, yesterday after another motivating email from moi, he went out and roughed out a bent bowl from a piece of maple....saying that he'd had a piece of Cherry saved for 20 yrs with the intent of making a pipe, and he wanted to try his hand on something less dear at first.
This a.m. he's sent me pics of a free hand cherry sitter?...all roughed out and two holes drilled...I wouldn't be surprised to see this get done within a few days. I'm impressed. He doesn't smoke. His woodworking lately has been duck decoys.
He's already said he was making this pipe for ME!...I'll get the first of many, I hope!
Almost forgot! Anybody got tips about working Cherry wood?
