Custom Cigar Poker

[sportsmedjosh]

So Friday I bought one of my friends a Palio cutter, he's used mine a couple times and whenever we went to the local cigar shop he always eyes them and says one day I'll get one. While when he was looking at cigars I snuck out and went to purchase him a silver one.

So fast forward to today he came over and brought me the coolest thing ever. It's a piece of antler he made into a cigar poker.

That is pretty F'n cool right there. Are you sure you shouldn't have bought him the Cammo Palio?

 

[sportsmedjosh]

They only had the black, gold and silver colours. To reduce confusion I made sure not to get him a black one.

I would say tungsten rod and antler. If not tungsten rod, the tungsten would make a fine one. You can get tungsten rods at any Welders Supply house. For you antler you need to shoot a deer, or someone with some deer antler LOL.

thanks virgeinadeaux, i got the antlers, just need the rod.

Bloody neat!

 

[Swampfox21]

picked up the rod from work, now i just gotta head down to beaufort sometime to get the antlers, not gonna lie kinda stoked about this

 

[sportsmedjosh]

Glad you guys liked it. I'm still stoked about the thing. If anyone doesn't have the means to make one I can ask my buddy if he could make you one.

Cool idea, but is that tungsten welding rod a little thick? Does it go into the cigar OK without stressing it too much and risk busting it?

That's great looking and also a great idea!

I used it and didn't have a single problem. Went in great, I'll try to get another picture of the gauge tomorrow.

I have to say this is one of the coolest things I've ever seen, if I get in the draw for a buck this year I'm totally making one!

 

[sportsmedjosh]
