I'm not sure if this was posted here but was on another forum. I wasn't aware that Rad Davis had surgery last week but this is a quote from him. Wishing him a fast recovery, with the new plumbing he'll be back blasting the hell out of everything
To All Who Have Pipes on Order With me:
Some of you may already know that I had a heart attack and quadruple by-pass surgery last week and was in the hospital from Jan 17th thru Jan 24. I'm home now, and expect to make a full recovery. Luckily, there was very little damage done to the heart muscle.
At this point, I have no idea how long it will be before I'm back in the shop making pipes, but it won't be real soon, as I intend to take my time.
)
If anyone needs to cancel their order, please let me know and I'll pull it from my queue. And please don't feel guilty if you need to cancel. I understand completely.
Thanks so much to all of you for your support, past and future. I'll let you know as soon as I'm back to work, and I look forward to seeing everyone in Chicago (Neil Flancbaum has told me I picked the perfect time of year to do this).
)
Best,
Rad
Craig

Must have been the cut of that morta block he used that set it off.
Seriously, glad your doing well and have a speedy recovery.

Heart attack, you are obviously working too hard at this pipemaking, you need power tools not a foot powered lathe!
Nice that we all love him so much to insult him when he is sick, that's a British style of love that is!
Get well soon Rad!
