Yeah, I believe I would ruin the cigar trying to remove it, It feels very securely rolled into the cigar. Normally I would not care much but at $14 I e mailed the place I bought it from with a picture, we will see if they are still my favorite online shop. Very strange, what luck.

I still can't believe you guessed it. ???

Yeah man! When I was a little kid my dad worked at a dusty old concrete plant. I remember going with my mother to pick up his check from their office on fridays. There was this little waiting area outside the office of the old building , with hard wood everything that smelled like trucks...

Damn Cigahs, you are good!! I did not smoke it yet. I tried to pull the string out but I could hear leaves crunching about 2/3 up the cigar, it is deep thru the smoke and feels like it is anchored firmly, it did not slide out at all. No big deal because the last one I smoked was not all that...

Yeah I have about a dozen like that also, they are very handy to have around. I think I have five or so with various burl, ivory and bone slabs that I use for knife handles and pistol grips. You can never have too many with a shop and a never ending supply if bits and pieces. It does turn me...

I was out in the shop with the morning coffee and was taking some pictures for a job. Here are my recycled boxes put to use. At one time each half held 1/2lb of 65% beads in my frigidor, but large plates work much better for that. I will keep on track here with the morning smoke in the...

I will let you know as soon as I get a reply from the maker. I am interested to see what they have have to say.

I was out in the shop carving away and decided a smoke was in order, to go with my coffee. Took a nice clean clip with my xikar and ??? I sent the company an e mail, we will see what happens, I am not smoking it. WTF? OVER!??? Had to burn an Opus Robusto instead.

"Well, I've been through 8 or so xikar cutters and the same amount of palio cutters" ??? You must be doing some serious smoking!! '

Nice find! That is a good smoke. Opus x are one of my favorite NCs, I turn into a little cigar grubbing pack rat when I see them at my local shop. I will usually snag all I can. That being said I have found a great local shop that calls me when they arrive, they have plenty of Robusto tins...

It is a glorious morning indeed !! Thank you sir. :p

I am real lucky here, my local guy is usually right around MSRP on all his Fuente sticks. Opus are there very often, but the pisser of it all the Aneho are hard to come by. I wish I could score a box of #50s. I snatch up the Opus whenever I go there and always hope for the others to be in. I...

No worries bud, I would bet you did not hurt a thing. It looks like you got to it pretty fast. I think you will never even be able to tell once it dries. If you want to be really safe just leave it open , probably 24 hrs will do, you will be able to see if its still wet. Even if it does...

Did you bump it and cause a spill ? or did it spill and sit soaking into the humidor for a while. If you just knocked it over, I would suck as much moisture out as possible with a towel, close it up and let it season. I have been a wood worker/cabinet maker for about 20 years now, and I...

I feel your pain brother, I am about busted and the bad part, Uncle Sam will not pay me until the 15th. I was able to keep regular by ordering a couple Padron singles, and doing some trading on CA , and CW. Trading is always an option when funds do not allow for box buys. It sucks not...

Well guys I smoked the Liberty the other night. It was ok, not bad but definately not worth the cash. I would much rather I bought an Opus,VSG, or a Padron with change left over. Definitely not a $15 smoke. It was not bad, I would compare it to just about any Torano I have tried (minus the...

That is one nasty looking little mutt. Maybe a coyote that ate too many antibiotic/steroided chickens. The funny thing is if they do find out it is a new breed/cross breed of dog there will be some rich dumb asses stroking them in interviews, I can hardly wait to find out what it really is...

I did not plug mine up at all. I think Vinotemp will take care of you there anyway, when I started running mine the drain hole was already plugged with their insulating foam. I actually drilled a straight drain in mine. Think about it like this , if your drain hole is plugged and you live in...

That is nuts. Heh , I just bought 5 for $50 shipped over on the CW board, still over msrp but not over the top. All it takes is a little looking. still that is not as bad as the douche bags that sell Opus x for $30+ per stick(current production), and I am talking retailers. Fuente keeps...

Great info, This forum is now oozing with excellent info for the guys looking to build a frigidor. I think the main reason the Vinotemp coolers are so popular is due to the fact we can run down to target and pick one up. Another excellent reason to go with this unit is because when you open...
