Is This A P-lip?
The photos look wrong for a P-Lip, it is probably chewed or just worn, what pipe is it from, is it a Peterson, because there was many pipe makers that copied them and put the hole in a different place.- tobakenist

Ruminations Regarding the Proper Cake
I have a old Peterson pamphlet that says to build the cake to the thickness of a Farthing (I'm UK), I have never done this either, always scrape out my ash and the sides, I don't think I have .5mm of cake in any of my pipes, I don't see how a really thick cake gives you a better or dryer smoke...- tobakenist

Peterson 999
The weight, the vintage pipe is remarkably lighter although it is almost the same size and shape, it has no model number or name on it and only lightly smoked and not reamed, it was part of my Grandfathers collection so it is most likely London made, he only smoked London made Petersons and they...- tobakenist

I have been collecting pipes since the late 60's, my main collection are Peterson's, so would I throw out a Peterson ? I do quite regularly, a few weeks ago I picked up 6 Petersons that were crap, cracks in bowls, bashed to pieces, why did I buy them ? they were cheap and in the worst condition...- tobakenist

Ruminations Regarding Rapid Reloading
I like to leave a couple of hours between reloading and after a quick clean, I have always thought that a pipe needs a rest, I was brought up in the times when most pipe smokers only had 1 or 2 pipes and and didn't sit down and clean them until the end of the day. I remember when Falcons became...- tobakenist

Peterson 999
I have a 999 Peterson shape pipe, made in the 1920's and still going strong, it is so light, I don't clench but it is so comfy between my teeth, even with a P-Lip, my partner found it in my collection and fell in love with it, had to search for a modern 999 for her, it's great and she loves it...- tobakenist
