  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

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

    Prepping binder and wrapper leaves

    Yes I get it super wet, wrap it around something while unfolding the leaf as I go to get the display edge as rolled out as I can, then I let it dry a bit before wrapping. Then cut after you get the edge to lay flat

    Sorting Leaf

    Can you elaborate on the processes that you do, for example, when you get a pound of viso, seco, and ligero of the same leaf do you then re-sort based on the leaves of each priming being similar to the other?
