Looking for a tool to unplug a cigar

[isad]

I know there was a Henry tool around that worked well but haven't been able to find one so I assume they are not made any more any one recomend something else?

My first experience with a poker was yesterday. Saved me eight bucks! It only cost ten. I could see this one paying itself off. I think the name brand was "The Draw Poker".

I have parts machined to make a poker similar to the Petrolygraph but I've yet to muster the ambition to take on another project.

i could probably forge a few out of nickel if any one would be interested ? they would be like the forks you see at the renaissance.

The Draw Poker" was the best one that I have heard of!!!

Just to let everyone know the Henry's cigar tool is not longer available. I have not been able to contact Henry or the guy that was helping him so I have not been able to get more of his cigar tools. So for the time being they are no longer available.

Nickel, sweet. I am down for one if you ever take on that project.

I am glad I have a Henry's, I hope they become avialable again.

The Henry's are awesome. It's saved a number of cigars for me. I swear 2 out of 3 Padilla '32 perlas are plugged. Now granted sometimes the act of unplugging pops the cigar because it was just packed WAY to tight.

I use a thin shanked scratch awl from my toolbench.

Or I just get frustrated and throw the darn thing away and grab another cigar.

1/16 drill bit has worked very well for me in the past.

Dang it..:disappoin I've been wanting to get a Herny's for over a year. I just never got around to it. I could have used one last night.

Old Henrys is the best. Heartfelt shoud have them.

Go to the supermarket and pick up a pack of bamboo skewers, there cheap and work well.

And then you can stick them in the end of the cigar and smoke it into a tiny nub. I second vote these as a plug tool, my other favorite is a rat tail jewlers file, they bore out a nice hole if you twist on them a bit.

I use a piece of 1/16" stainless welding rod that I bent a ring onto the end, and turned the end down into a sharp point. I cut it to fit into my travel humi where it lives.

I've been pretty lucky lately, I haven't had to break it out in months.

So how do you use a poker device? I'm using a shish-kabob stick for now--do I insert at the head and push towards the foot? (that sounded creepy...)

I'd love to trade a few sticks to someone who has an extra draw-poker lying around. PM me if you have one.

(sorry for the threadjack)

 

[RigilKent]

Just like that is how I do it. As creepy as it indeed might sound.
