Custom Cigar Mold

[shadowcam]

So it was only a matter that I would graduate from my wrapper remixes and start reblending cigars. I'll probably buy some loose leaf eventually but I'm just going to use my existing cigars. My custom mold came in today and I think I'm going to fall in love with it. It's 6 x 44. Just about the right size for me. Having no experience with filler and binders, this experiment will be ongoing. Hopefully I'll figure out the rolling part sooner rather than later.

My first project was a busted up UF-4. I deconstructed it and made two Coronas out of it with Anejo wrappers on both. Next project will be mixing the Goldie No. 5 with LFDC Grandiosos. That sounds like a dream cigar to me

First freshly rolled cigar

Sounds like you are having a lot of fun with this!!! Al of your "new' sticks always look good!

 

[ENV]

Wow. I think you have a calling here. I wouldn't mind buying one out two of your creations!

 

[Wicket]

Looks great. Would be cool to see a time laps of you making some. I also would be interested in one of your creations some day.

Definitely takes some talent, practice and steady hands to roll those cigars... very cool of you to get some molds and do what you're doing! Was one of the more memorable parts of our BOTL trip to the My Father factory was all of us rolling a cigar sitting at Pepin or Jaime's rolling table and rolling a cigar while they watched. Then Pepin judged all our cigars and picked a winner. Needless to say it wasn't me. LOL

Good luck in the adventure bro!

That's awesome man. I wish I was able to play around with changing wrappers let alone that!

Also is that picture of your first cigar the messed up UF-4 with the Anejo wrapper? It looks like you did a great job!

 

[Lipher]

Great job brother. Maybe make a remix thread we can subscribe to?

 

[StogieNinja]

Oh. My. Word.

Eddie, I'd you ever decide to sell a few, please let me know!!!

 

[Xavier Dredo]

Wow, that looks great!

 

[Tag9485]

This is really awesome man, I wish I had the skill to do something like this.

 

[UpInSmoke]

Awesome stuff. Best of luck, Eddie

Sweet Eddie. That's some hard ass maple you got there. Did you just throw the router bit out afterwards? Certainly not to take away from Eddie's beautiful molds but fellas, don't doubt yourselves. Give it a try if it interests you. Building stuff can be very rewarding, even if it isn't perfect. So... When are the shadowcam custom rolls going on sale? Lol

Once you get all this sorted you'll have to start on your own personal bands.

Could be a great weekend business. I have seen cigar rollers at motorcycle and car shows, wedding receptions and other parties. if you enjoy doing it, why not practice and make a few extra bucks at the same time.
