In Need of a Draw Tool
 

Hey Inmates - Well, I hit another good plug yesterday in an otherwise tasty HdM, and decided I need a draw tool. What do you guys suggest?

Believe it or not I've seen some people use drill bits. If you do a search someone a while back was making some custom draw tools.

PM Groogs, he may have an extra set of the tools he makes. :tu

Contact "Boom" (Troy) here in the nut house, he makes some great ones:

In case you can't nail down a custom draw tool maker...

I really enjoy my Don Salvatore draw tool. Got the one in the shape of a pen, and it has the serrated edges on it. Wound up pulling it down in a group buy.

Groogs is the man. Love the ones he made for me.:tu

Just use a large paperclip, unfolded arrow-straight about 4". Be careful or you puncture the wrapper. Stiff enough to get through cleanly, not so big it will split the stick.

I use the Draw Poker, works perfect for me

Re: In Need of a Draw Tool
 

The problem with paperclips is that it often just moves the tobacco aside, then after it is removed, the tobacco expands to fill the hole you;ve justv made. Serrated edges on a draw poker work nicely, as they remove some of the obstructing tobacco from the cigar itself.

Thanks, guys! Some great recs there, much obliged!

Troy does beautiful work!! :tu

Re: In Need of a Draw Tool
 

It may not be pretty, but it does the job....

I use a cut piece of a wire coat hanger, sharpened, with the other end bent into a handle.... Sounds like I might have to add some serrations.

Re: In Need of a Draw Tool
 

Some one mention my name????? Let me know if you need one.... Thanks fellas...

I have had many draw tools.
Overall, they have all been OK.

HOWEVER, in time, I got tired of using them and instead of taking aspirin for a headache, I got rid of the root cause of the headache.
I now just feed my lake with cigars whenever they don't draw right. The joy of smoking them seems to leave me the moment I start struggling with them.
