Sorry, don't have a ring gauge. 48 maybe!

The leaves are Piloto seco, Aleman ligero, Aleman oscuro binder & wrapper.

I thought you guys might appreciate this picture. It's a cigar company that prides itself on making rustic cigars.

Don,
I do appreciate your post! Thanks.
Who is the cigar company by the way?

They look like Toscano cigars or Toscanellos ​which are generally made of non-cigar leaves.

Thanks for the info. It's been awhile since I asked that question and had forgoten about it.

Here's the lastest stick, courtesy of Knucklehead's recipe. This is wrapped in a low case Aleman Oscuro, with Piloto fillers. The wine is a Persimmon.

Ok here some of my latest stogies, I decided to leave them O' Natural at the foot, works out good without a tuck cutter

 

[deluxestogie]

They look good. The ragged foot is sometimes messy to light. I don't use a tuck cutter, but just use my chaveta (Kuhn Rikon kulu) to cut the foot. (Don't tell anyone.)

Indianamac, nice stogie, that persimmon wine looks delicious, also handcrafted, I assume.

El Cubanito, you got the knack, they look professional.

The pics in this thread make me want to take up the sport... all so tempting to look at.

I cant take as much credit as all the you tube videos Ive watched helped alot, and a use a cigar mold to give them that really round look. I gotta tel ya its fun to roll, and relaxing, especially with a little Jamesons on the rolling table.

Aw, take the credit. I've watched videos, read forum posts, etc. Mine still look like they came out of the south end of a north bound dog. They all smoke like a house on fire though, but they look like they fell out of the ugly tree and hit every limb on the way down.

 

[El Gallo]

Wow, Ive seen some stuff that's fallen out of that ugly tree that's pretty scary! But hey if they smoke good and taste good looks don't matter.

Some times you hands will just sculp, they just know what they are doing. An ugly cigar is in the eye of the bloke smoking it. If it tastes good then it's just a cosmetic imperfection...

Thanks. Rolled that one, wrapper vanes out. Was look'n for the rough/rugged look.

Persimmon wine is from a little local winery, not mine though! It is delicious. Goes real good with a good stick.

El Cubanito, where you been??

Looks like your still roll'n and roll'n some good look'n sticks. Are you still roll'n that recipe I gave ya awhile back? Good to c'ya. Nice JD too!

 

[El Gallo]

I am Rollin that blend you gave me and it is one of my wife's favorites, not too strong and real tastey. I roll about 10-15 sticks a week just to relax. Of course I smoke a stick a day so I have to roll just to keep up my stock. Yea that JD tractor I bought from my best friend as he felt the need to buy a bigger one. It will last me a life time, hard to get my wife off it when it's time to mow the field.
