  • 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.

My full cutter is really quite dull, so I only use it on certain cigars with looser caps and/or strong and flexible wrappers.

I use a V cut on most though, never have problems with cracking the wrapper and if the draw is a little tight, just snip a second cut and its good to go. Rarely have an issue with the V cut.

Punches I used to use a lot. But as I expanded my knowledge and experience, I moved away from pretty much anything over 50rg and quit using the punches.
