Need advice on "cloning" old cherry tree???

Can I take cuttings
of the few small branches which have leaves? Could I buy a rootstock
and try budding onto it, now in Spring?

I don't see why you can't try it even if it's not the ideal time of year.

Should I wait for the fruit to
develop and save the cherry pits for sowing?

I should qualify this post by saying I have no experience of propagating
cherries, but I believe that cherry stones won't produce the same fruit as
the parent plant.
