ring gauge update

[RonC]

how would a styrene (plastic) gauge be for $5.00? it would have the ruler, and holes punched. worth the $5?

 

[Andytex]

I'll take 5 please. those would be great gifts for my buddies.

 

[blooz4u]

Do you have any early pics? I'm in for a few!

 

[RonC]

no pics, just getting opinions. these wont be fancy. just white with black letters. ruler. holes for cigar sizing.

 

[RonC]

should there be 2 rulers? one in inches, 1 in MM ? i would just prefer the 1 in inches, but it really wont matter

 

[Starz26]

I would take one, great idea

No mm lol.. I think that is a fair price, I would like one! I have been on a search to find the one that is Brass I think and looks like a leaf with no luck. Not finding it and not having the cash for it anyway makes this a perfect alternative. Maybe you could print a leaf on there to make me feel a bit better lol

Sounds good, could put one with each humidor at the price.

Wknd.

i might be able to print a simple but nice cigar with some smoke in black.

 

[RonC]

thicker cigars are popular these days, should i go 56 or 58 for largest hole?

I've seen several 60+ cigars (NUb, etc). I would go with 64 as that's technically 1".

there was a thread on puff.com last year where they did a group buy on these.

 

[qballizhere]

I saw this a while back thought it was great it contains an exact image of each factory vitola produced in Cuba

Also had this idea

 

[qballizhere]

ok so it took me a while to find the pics

 

[edogg]

I am definitely interested Ron. And yes both cm and inches should be represented

 

[RonC]

I like the club stogie gauge. The 1 on the bottom is perfect. where did you get that design?

 

[alden]

I think the club stogie was purchased form Shumsky humidors (black Ruler), maybe? there is order info on the black one.

 

[RonC]

what would you guys think of a folding gauge? think of a 10" ruler that would not fold, but swivel. so it would be about 6" long by about 1.5" folded. when you open it, it would be about 10" long. i would probably have to get rid of some of the smaller gauge holes. any thoughts?

 

[RonC]

i am working on a replica of the club stogie version
