166. Charles Peterson’s System Pipe-Packing Method

Here’s something old for Peterson lovers that for many of us—me, at any rate—is quite new: a System-pipe packing method that seems to have come down from Charles Peterson himself. It’s found in the…

Thanks!
The “drying paper” will look awesome on my cluttered pipe desk compared to the plain sheet of copy paper I usually use.
It’ll also remind me to try the method when I smoke my 363.

That drilling looks pretty correct and standard for a system pipe brother. Someone correct me if I'm mistaken.

No I understand how it's supposed to be drilled, I'm referring to the bits left over that weren't cleaned up.

Other than the edge of the system reservoir looking a little ragged, it seems good to me.
@didimauw-pipe looks better than the erroneous picture, and it’s awesome you got yourself a p-lip. Depending on size of hole in bit, you may want to add some tapered cleaners to your next order.

Yeah it cleaned up with a pick, and smokes very well. Too bad I'm going to beat the crap out of this pretty pipe!

And you are right, I got a much better looking pipe than the one in the Pic! I didn't even notice

I’m with you. I enjoy looking at many beautiful pipes here, but don’t foresee getting any pipe just to cherish and gaze upon. Tools they are, and used they will be!

Finishing this bowl of 1792 flake breaking in this newly arrived today Heritage POTY #298/1100

This has a much larger weargap than my Terracotta does but it's a smooth draw and building moisture in the reservoir so I might not make any changes to er, time will tell.

 

[Revnatorade C.P.G.]

Interesting! I'll give that a shot from now on! Thanks!

It will make a world of difference.

I've got more pipes than I can count that have never seen a bowl packed or a match lit. I think I have 50 in my rotation, but smoke 10 of them regularly. I look at a pipe like a great piece of art, some I use, others I stare at and admire them.

That’s the beauty of it all, isn’t it? Freedom to pursue what we enjoy, that is.
I appreciate you sharing them with us here as well, I do enjoy gazing upon them without having to bear the financial burden of ownership

I'm a weirdo to be honest and an obsessive collector of all things I get interested in.

I need to sell off my Stars Wars and Marvel Prop replicas to make room in my office for more pipes. Lol

A worthy exchange. I was big into comics and action figures before pipes came around.

I'm liking the look of the new Christmas pipes! Drop on Tuesday!

My wife says collecting can be a childish thing but she's just a big, stinky doodoo head!

Full pics are up on PPN.

Wish they did a 65 but there are lots of shapes appealing to me here (701, 69, 102, 338, 230). Now to decide which one... And then I'm guessing there's still this year's PPN, too.

Anyone know if they're going to drop everything on Tuesday or continue to release them through Christmas?

I have meant to get a spigot pipe of some sort for a long time and today I got my first in the mail. Also got the Peterson Pipe Notes update and now I'll most likely soon have two. If all of them don't sell instantly like the POTY that is.

My phone makes it look more bright red than it is.
