This was my first stick...

A little early stick versus current stick comparo. Not my first one btw.

A coworker of mine, and mentor, is retiring. He asked me to do his retirement ceremony, which is an honor, but I wanted to send him off with something personal. So for the past 2 months I have been rolling cigars to fill this container, and I have finally finished! Now I just need to put the...

Is it just me, or does it seems like our leaf suppliers are running low lately? I was just on LO and a lot of leaf types are sold out.

That thing is gorgeous, did you free hand it or use a mold???

Where is it that you are sourcing the leaf? Not gunna lie those look great!

Bliss just because you like a post, doesn’t mean you get to escape without your personal faves. ;-)

How long does it take to get from planting to stick when you grow your own? This has intrigued me, but time could be an issue...

Much love Dom 56, but this is the first thing I thought of when I saw your post of what the cylindrical object was.

How did you get the shape? A mold or paper method? It looks really good!

After watching bliss use the piping caps, I have been using that, I was just laughing at the “UP” charge that the site placed on the item

Everyday, getting a little better. Capping is a struggle, but little by little each cigar gets better!

So there I was... looking for molds, when I found a capping tool for $13.00. I was excited for about 6.9 seconds until I realized that I could buy the same capping tool at Walmart for approximately 69 cents. Oh the things you find on Etsy...

Or more....

I know it doesn’t do anything, but dang it I want it to look purty lol But yeah every time I roll I just keep trying to make it prettier
