'''''An interesting Wedding Set project, for a very special friend.''''' <br>
A very good friend of mine is a young lady who took an interest in pipe smoking last year. She was very soon to be married to a young man, who also smokes pipes. So, what's a pipe maker to give such a couple as a gift? A wedding pipe set, of course!
The pipes are made from one piece of plateaux briar from the Calibria region of Southern Italy (at the toe of the “boot”). Before cutting the briar into the rough shapes for the two pipes it was destined to become, I cut a thin slice from the face and set it into the top of the box.
'''''I imagined that as the couple became one in marriage, the one that was this particular piece of briar has become two. If and when the pipes are smoked together by the couple, the essence of the briar will be reunited.'''''

From Scott's website: For many years I dreamed of making my own pipe one day, and I finally did. It was christened in February of 2006 as Etude #1, The Piano Tuner's Pipe. Many flaws and mistakes of course, but a wonderful and rewarding experience. I was hooked! New to pipe making, but loving it with a passion, and dedicating nearly every spare moment to either making pipes of my own, or studying the techniques and artistry of master pipe makers. My hope is to one day be among that elite group. For now, I'm hoping to soon be considered amongst the up and coming.

I'm essentially self-taught, but with constant help and feedback from members of the pipmakersforum.com. An amazing resource, several of the members are true masters of the craft, and amazingly generous in passing on their gifts to the rest of us.

I am a piano tuner-technician and piano rebuilder by trade, as well as a musician. I love music and I find musical instruments and the materials they are made from beautiful and fascinating. The musicians, and the musical forms and compositions I work with are a great inspiration to me. I hope to use musical elements and themes as inspiration in my pipe making. I also hope to use some exotic instrument materials as accents in my pipes.
