  • 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.

Expensive ashtrays?

Oh yes events. I don't know that there is much cigar activity in the community around where I live. I keep my eyes open though.

The only ashtray I want in the CAO cubist. But for $99.00 on ebay, I think not..
I do not get many cigar events here and the wife hollars if I ash on the garage floor so I do now own a TAT ashtray.

Wish I could sell it for $100, then I would buy another :)
You could always buy some clay and paint, create a replica and maybe even if your kids art teacher is nice enough they would let you use their kiln. Supposing you have kids. If I had the clay I would do it.

C'mon, Guys! Doesnt ANNYBODY shop @ The Salvation Army or Goodwill? Check with the Management at your local S.A. or G.W., most have large headquarters for recieving and offer special pricing if you sort through big piles and bins of new arrivals from donation boxes etc... its $2.00 to fill a box with whatever you like at the one near me. got an antique japanese pipe shaped ashtray last week - from occupied japan back in the day - its worth big cash and it was only one of many items purchased for only $2.00 TOTAL!
you like rare, vintage smoking articles right? Ask some questions at your local S.A. or G.W. store and stop paying top dollar for stuff you can find for way less. Stuff NOBODY else has.

Ahhh... Goodwill!!! Here are my two backyard receptacles:



The Black one is solid Marble... GW for 99 cents.
The Stainless one is actually a spoon rest for the stovetop... 25 cents on a half off saturday.

$1.24 invested... done and done.

I saw a sweet slice of petrified wood at a store while I was in myrtle beach and thought "this would make a kick ass ashtray". It was black and white stone formerly wood. It was rather cool I must say.

I sent an email to Ashton asking for an ashtray. 1 week later an Ashton 4 finger ashtray was delivered to my door. Free free fee, I didn't even pay shipping.
