Visiting Todd in Nashville this summer was not only fun but we managed to talk about pipe making a great deal of the time.
Many pipe makers work in isolation, so any chance to get together and talk about our craft is something to look forward to whenever we get the chance.
The pipe shows we attend seem to have the same outcome. Pipe makers from all over the world get to share their stories and talk about each others work.
Discussing tools and materials used in the creation of pipes and even helping each other with common and not so common problems
we may be having.
While in Nashville, I also got to visit with another
pipe maker, Bruce Weaver. Me and Bruce would talk about pipes and life in general while watching Todd work on a new Blow Fish.
Meeting with Todd this summer was such a good
experience that I went home and started to plan my next visit to Nashville.
This time I would make plans for a longer visit so I could work with Todd as long as both of our schedules would allow.
