Double B, I sent you a pm regarding Canadians buying from the USA.

I love the bracelets. There is more cigar art in a thread I started on 3/14/14 called "Decorating with cigars".

I joined this forum a few months back and one of the many things I've learned so far is that many cigar aficionados store their cigars in ugly Tupperware. The desk top humidor is more for show than anything else. I recently increased my cigar inventory so I decided to try Tupperware since I...

I'm glad she is OK. The thoughts of what could have been are scary. My son was in a serious accident a few years ago. He's OK. I know what you mean about that sickening feeling when you hear the news. Thank the Lord.

Very cool ! I love the photo of your processing area. I've grown a bit and rolled a bit but nothing like the production you seem to have. How about some more information. How many types do you grow? Do you have a favorite blend or do you just play around with blending? How many cigars do...

The video on the previous page was very cool. Take a look.

I'm following this so don't forget the updates. Good luck.

I have seen dozens of these type of videos but this one is the best. Very cool. I am not familiar with this cigar but it is beautiful. I have to have one. Thanks for posting. Bruce.

I may be breaking some sort of unwritten rule but, why does everyone seem to disguise the word when they write in in the forum ? Wow, I didn't realize that the forum would not even let the word be posted. I am, o fcourse, referring to the word "PayP**

Don't worry. It's just wood. It can go from dry to wet to dry without any adverse affects. It just swells and shrinks a bit. All you have to do is get it stable where you want it.

This is a great experiment. Good luck with 2.0 I don't have any idea what could have happened other than maybe they got burnt by the sun. This is possible, but unlikely when they are indoors. I do have a couple of suggestions for you. I know you have been doing your research so this is...

The two brands of electronic hygrometers that I was calibrating were Springfield ($12) and Hygoset ($20). They are cheap but they work great.

Problem solved. It occurred to me that while a salt solution will hold the RH at 75%, it may not be enough to get the contents of the bag to 75% when my house air is very dry. My house is at about 38% right now. I opened the bag and put a couple of breaths into the bag. This fogged the bag...

I thought the salt test was 100% accurate. The chemical properties of salt result in a stable 75% RH. The amount of water added is not important as long as all the salt is not dissolved. At least that is what I learned in school and on countless hygrometer sites. Am I wrong ?

I have 3 inexpensive electronic hygrometers. Two of one brand and one of another. I decided to calibrate them. I put them in a sealed plastic bag with a tablespoon of damp salt. After 3 days the readings are 65%, 65%, 63%. I understand that they can be off calibration but 10% is quite a...

My deal with Headbanger is complete. He is one generous dude. It was a great experience.

The pectin will work great. If the wrapper is peeling back then you can glue it down. If a piece of wrapper has broken off then you may need to patch it. I suggest what Chimmay said. Just take a small piece of wrapper off a cigar you have smoked. It's very easy. Just slice the cigar with a...

I have an office (man cave) in my new home. I've made a couple of cigar decorations for the walls. The one on the left is some tubes from some Cubans. Behind them is a tobacco leaf in the shape of Cuba. The one on the right contains 3 cigars that I rolled myself. I like to try rolling...

I just received a sampler pack of CAO cigars from Cigar King (one of our BOTL sponsors) I'm a fan of CAO products and the price for these 12 cigars ( 3 each of MX2, LX2, Italia, Brazillia) was less than the box pricing. What I particularly liked was the packaging. It is a nice box with a...

Hey Teach, Yesterday you posted a list of traders and you have me listed as "disappeared". I'm still here and waiting patiently for a cash trade. I'm on the site every couple of days but I don't often post. I check my notifications on the site and I have them linked to my personal email...
