Found this beauty at the antique store for $19, it really makes wonderful cigars.

I rolled a basic cigar, stuffed it in the press, trimmed the ends, pulled out the binder/filler, wrapped the wrapper, stuffed it back in, pressed it again over night and the next morning I got a very nice cigar. No glue, a little dry (my problem, I didn't even bring it back into perfect case) but smoke and taste great.IMG_1753.JPG

That's not a cigar press. A cigar press is what they use to press the cigar mold boxes flat. It will usually accommodate half a dozen boxes at a time, depending on the size of the press. It is basically a big screw press.

I might just do this some more. It's a good way to help move some leaf from Larry (bigBonner) and Don (FMGrowit). I have to get some leaf from Don, but it's quite fun making and sending out samples.
