First, you want to avoid softwoods and stick with your basic hardwoods (oak, maple, cherry, ash, poplar and a few others. No rainforest hardwoods, as they tend not to have happy reactions in many people).
As long as the cherry does not touch the glue, there should be no problem. Remember that a very thin bead of glue is more than adequate for almost all purposes. I would recommend A simple wood glue like http://www.amazon.com/Franklin-International-5063-Titebond-Original/dp/B0002YWZPW/ref=sr_1_1?s=hardware&ie=UTF8&qid=1367548726&sr=1-1&keywords=titebond+original+wood+glue
Most say a mineral oil rub is all you should use, but others may disagree with me. DO NOT put anything on the inside of the bowl or anywhere else that may come in contact with embers or flame.
Dressmaking pins are far far far easier than the shitty tacks and are cheap as chips. Decent woodglue is a must. Get some extra blades for the knife as they blunt quickly. Get a few sheets of sandpaper of various thickness, I also used Tamiya sanding sponge as it's good for the 3D of the hull. Soak planks a decent length of time.
Don't be discouraged if something doesn't fit well, lots of adaption is required at times as things don't often fit as they should due to the nature of the beast. My keel took quite some adaption but you wouldn't know looking at it. Careful with doing too many hull planks at once, if they're wet then they shrink so can leave gaps.
Patience patience patience
If you buy a wood desk from Office Depot, IKEA, or anywhere else, ALWAYS put it together with a squiggled bead of Titebond Wood Glue on the surface of every joint and place a dab of glue into every dowel and screw hole. It will not come apart or wobble. Just be sure to wipe away the excess glue with a wet towel as you tighten the joints.
As an example, a sizable particle board corner desk with built in cabinets on each side that I bought in 2000 at Best Buy is still in use by my Dad and has been through moves from FL > NC > OH > WI (and now three different homes in WI) in the last 18 years and has never come apart.
I have done this for 25+ years and have never had a piece of furniture assembled in this way fail on me.
This is the stuff in case you aren't familiar - You can get it at any Lowes/Home Depot locally: https://www.amazon.com/Titebond-5063-Original-Wood-8-Ounces/dp/B0002YWZPW?psc=1&SubscriptionId=AKIAILSHYYTFIVPWUY6Q&tag=duckduckgo-osx-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B0002YWZPW
For example, I just ordered this because I can't stand the circular shape of this.
