Before and After.

Following on from my "how to clean a pipe" post, I thought I'd share a "before" and "after" photo of a recent acquisition...a Peterson's Smooth 303 Standard System.

The "after" shot (on the right) still needs a bit more work...at this size, I can see that it needs a bit more buffing to get the hazed Paragon Wax out of the Peterson stamp. There's still a bit of tar on the rim that isn't as obvious when looking at the pipe.
I'm rebuilding the cake so I've left if with a layer of ash after my last smoke.

I'm still a new convert to the delights of Peterson pipes and tobacco...but I'm catching up.
