Fine Pewter has a material value of 5. This represents a significant increase over its component parts (which all have a value of 2), making fine pewter suitable for creating mid-value furniture and items. If you have an abundance of tin, this is the best form of [[pewter]] to make.

Fine Pewter has a value of 5. This is far more preferable for making objects of value than its component parts which all have a value of 2. If you have an abundance of tin this is the best form of pewter to make (but know that [[Bronze]] is worth the same, and [[Bismuth bronze]] even more).
 
 
Note that [[Bronze]] uses the same ingredients (though in different proportions), has the same material value, and is also useful as a mid-grade [[weapon]]s material, while [[Bismuth bronze]] is more valuable. However, you can produce 16 bars of fine pewter with a single unit of [[fuel]] (when smelting from [[ore]]s), giving fine pewter a slight advantage over bronze if fuel is constrained.
