I see some superlative Pete's dropped today?

Nvm... That was on Friday....
I totally missed that one

 

[Brew&Briar]

It looks like there are some new naturals in this release today. The PSB were Friday

 

[Hillcrest]

The latest House pipes seem to be smaller than the latest Pub Pipes. I believe it used to be the other way around.

Which were those?

I can get into the forum now without getting the dreaded 403 error…

I haven’t been buying Pete’s for a few years.

This years SPD’s haven’t had the enthusiasm of SPD’s of past years. But I thought the green acrylic mount looked nice. My only concern was how would the drilling be.

I leisurely perused the offerings when they dropped, I was unencumbered by a sense of urgency, since there was no mad scramble to cart these up and purchase them only to find them sold out from under me at checkout.

The sandblast 307 arrived the other day. The draft was high in the chamber, so I worked it to my satisfaction in order to get it to a place where I could smoke most of the tobacco in the chamber. Polished off some residual stain on the mount. I’ve always been interested in CAO Eileen’s Dream, but never bought any. So I ordered a few tins which this pipe will be dedicated to.

I’ve got a B42 ebony on the way as well.

The yellow dot in the second picture is an indication of where I wanted the draft hole to be…

I can post pics of actual pipes together later today if that helps.

Yeah that would be great! I’ve got a 53 now so I can use that to get a feel for the 102.

Thanks! Looks like the 104 is closer to the X105 than a 102.

After years of looking at them, finally got round to buying a Sherlock Holmes ‘Lestrade’.

A strange shape, to say the least. Like somebody found a fossilised bollock & stuck a stem on it! I know lots of people rave about this particular shape, but I’m struggling to warm to it. Time will tell.

Interesting shape. What’s going on in the background? Is someone returning a heart to the king?

I think it's the Bayeux tapestry!

If you ever get the chance to see it in person it's incredible.

Really nice pipe. I like this shape a lot, it is about as close to an oom Paul as I think you can find from Peterson aside from some real oldies and a commemorative pipe years ago

What about the House and Pub pipes?

 

[seanv]

Forgot about those two. The blasts look outstanding

Also the (sadly) discontinued 02 shape.

Correctamundo!

Thankyou, it is incredible. I should say though, my smoking tray is not available for public viewing…at this time.

Your site says you're open starting Feb 1. Is that still the case?

Technically Peterson does still make a regular sized Oom Paul and they make it in a variety of ranges. It's called the D18, unfortunately they don't make very many at all. They only pop up VERY infrequently.

Peterson - D18 - Sandblast - Silver Cap - Fishtail - 9mm Filter

The Dublin Silver Cap range makes use of the same briar used for the Supreme ranges. These pipes are cut from the rare blocks with feature almost flawless and visually impressive grain. This stunning Canadian is not featured in as many Peterson lines as it should. The long oval shank matches the...

Is the D18 the same stummel as the pub?

Also, anyone checking out these Junior pipes? I’ve seen a lovat in person and it was just too small but I’m now tempted by it again in the sandblast and heritage.

Also tempted by the straight apple in the same finishes. If the apple were at least 10mm longer I would’ve gone for it for sure.
