Default Re: Rolling your own

So I finally got around to rolling up some cigars. Without the use of a mold or tuck cutter, I think I did alright. I will post pictures soon.

I did learn some things though. It is very important to roll the cigar in the proper angle. Also, it is better to use 2 leaves for the binder like most of the cuban rollers do.

As an aside, I used the gum arabic resin that I had and it did well. However, I was looking at the picture below and I have seen the holder he is using for the glue in many other places. I also included a video that shows this same glue holder. Anyone got any ideas on what product that is? My google-fu has turned up nothing.
