If the heritage stains were closer to $150 I don't think I would've been able to resist. Or if they did dark smooths for under $200.

Thanks for leaving us some RuasThat's a beautiful Rua! I was strongly considering fighting for one myself, but decided to pass. I have a beautiful rua 3s system that satisfies my love of the finish and didn't want it to have any competition
That's unfortunate. Fills, no matter how small, bug the crap out of me. There were historically only a few Pete lines supposedly guaranteed to be free of fills and POTY's weren't among them. Have heard folks complain of fills in various POTY's going back over the years. Since I have only 2 POTY's and both are rusticated, would never know if mine had them or not.
Need to make a new rack for my POTY. Trying to figure out how big.
You know it'll never be enough so just do your best and then make another one when it's full
Thats my fear. I
I'm thinking about making a rack to hold 50 and only allocate for POTY. If I collect all of the current years that's gives me a few more years to add.You know it'll never be enough so just do your best and then make another one when it's full
New 2021 Peterson Halloween (307) arrival.
That's amazing. Where ever did you find that?
Surprisingly in Etsy. They’ve got some decent deals and pipes.
I find Etsy so annoying to look through but there are gems out there (and who am I kidding, my PAD far outweighs any annouance)
A little late to post, but I am very pleased. 
Sandblasted smokes great! Shape # should be 324 so we remember the year this System came out. It says first system in 3 decades, but that seems to overlook the B42, no?

Yeah I'm not sure what criteria they were using but the B42 came out in I think 2009 as a system pipe.A little late to post, but I am pleased.
I love the 324 idea. Maybe 324 will be the pipesmagazine unofficial model number for the POTY 2024.A little late to post, but I am very pleased.
Lovely new pipes there Brother. EnjoyA little late to post, but I am very pleased.
I like that too. I think a 300-level number makes more sense for Peterson's naming convention.
In the pre-republic, wasn’t the naming convention for the first “3” to denote third rate grading?
Maybe they meant newest deluxe system pipe shape in decades.A little late to post, but I am very pleased.
I'm not sure. I always thought the second number denoted a worse grade. Like a 308 would be normal and then a 358 (or maybe it was 368) would be a lower grade. I'm too lazy to check the book right now...
I think you’re correct and my brain is fried today…
I was thinking of the early grading marked on the side of stummel, as on my 363 System 3
