    A West Virginian vinotemp shelf

    After seeing all the beautiful spanish cedar creations i decided to undertake my own operation, only the shelf had to meet three crucial criteria. 1. functional 2. free 3. ugly After 20 minutes of toil and trouble with a Tabantillas cigar box, dremel, sander, saw, and wood glue i've ended up...

    I wept

    A friend came over for a visit and helped himself to my last Gurkha regent which I had planned aging. I had almost gotten over it thinking at least he'll enjoy the smoke. That's when i looked in my ashtray. And shed a single tear for my barely smoked comrade.

    Walmart $5 Digital Hydrometer

    It's worked fine for me, salt tested at 1% off. I mainly made this thread to ask a question that has me worried My hydrometer sits primarily between 66 and 68 degrees and it often switches right in between those two directly. When it does this, it changes the RH by 10%, it's 76% at 66...

    Have you calibrated your hygrometer?

    Don Lino Africa

    I'm not going to claim to know the hints of flavor or burn qualities. All i'll say is I thoroughly enjoyed this cigar and had never heard of it before.

    Colibri Walmart lighter

    $12 at walmart, i saw SST ignition and assumed it meant nothing less than space shuttle type. However, it's not as simple as click it and it lights, you have to baby it and pull slowly to let butane run out a few seconds before you can ignite. Overall, quantum SST ignition doesn't impress me.
