Cigar holder
 

Hi guys. I made a cigar holder, as an experiment. It is interesting to anyone? -(P

Does this have an open tip, Zinovi?

Re: Cigar holder
 

whats the ring gauge

Re: Cigar holder
 

Ring gauge is 16-18 mm. Details here http://seniakpipes.ucoz.com/photo/ci...oto_1/38-0-131
I can make any ring gauges up to 30 mm.

Re: Cigar holder
 

Looks like its just a cap that holds the cigar while you hold the cap.

Re: Cigar holder
 

We're just trying to avoid doing the math. If I have done the match correctly 16-18mm is 38-43RG.

Re: Cigar holder
 

How is it made? Cast?

Re: Cigar holder
 

My guess is that it is open at the other end. Much like a pipe stem but meant to hold cigars.

Re: Cigar holder
 

Yes, that's correct.

Re: Cigar holder
 

It looks nice, but I have two issues with it.

1. It looks like it could be hard on the teeth.
2. I'm not sure if it is practical to to have have one of these for each cigar ring gauge. Though I guess if someone had a particular cigar they smoke quite often, it could potentially be useful for smoking the entire cigar....

Re: Cigar holder
 

I agree with Jeremy, unless you got them in multiple ring gauges, they don't seem too practical for one who smokes many different cigars.

If something could be developed to collapse and expand to fit all ring gauges, think about the uses. A group of Puff-Puff-Passers could each have their own holder, pass along cigars without ever swapping spit.

Re: Cigar holder
 

For many different cigars need to do a set of holders. This is for fans, anyway.

Re: Cigar holder
 

Maybe if there was a set of these say 38 42 46 50 52 54 for a reasonable price. Maybe some rubber around the draw end?

Re: Cigar holder
 

Rubber for what?

Re: Cigar holder
 

Maybe less expensive that way, if making full sets? I don't know what he meant for sure, just conjecturing.

Re: Cigar holder
 

They mean like those Softee Rubber Bits some people put on pipes. To make holding the cigar holder with the teeth easier.

Re: Cigar holder
 

I had forgotten about these I rember one of my Great Uncles among others that used them. back in the 50s.
Thanks for the memory.

But anyway, is not a thing of prime necessity. This is for connoisseurs.
