Joe, I’ll be glad to bring you some bowl blanks. I will be visiting your area either this month or sometime next month. We’ve decided to make the trip, but haven’t worked out any other details. How far are you from Sam Maloof’s house? I’m going to fly out sometime this month to take the tour and to spend as much time as possible looking at the furniture and home he built. I’ll be glad to pack a couple of blanks in my luggage for you. Also what else is in the area to visit? If I’m taking the time and trouble to make the trip, I’d like to see as much as possible.
