[QUOTE="Mikem, post: 10279, member: 29"] IMHO olive wood bowls tend to get hotter quicker than briar. They are also a little heavier than a briar. Cherry wood might be a little lighter. As far as burn out goes I would think that briar would tend to burn out more so than the other two. Reason being, the hidden imperfections (i.e. sand pits) that can be in a briar block. Olive wood and cherry wood is not a root type of wood so you will not see any of these type of imperfections that could cause a burnout. The only pipe I have had a burn out on was a briar, and it was on a new pipe. Showed up after about the fifth smoke. When you look inside the bowl you can see where the sand pit is. [/QUOTE]
