Nub holder?

Razorhog · 02-24-2010, 06:22 PM

I occasionally see a picture of a BOTL holding a tasty nub with what I can only call a "nub holder". Some I've seen have a coiled wire - I was just wondering where I might procure such a device?

A drywall screw is the best thing I've used. Once you screw it in a bit it holds the nub more firmly than any smooth "needle" type holder ever could. Plus it's about 3 cents to replace it when it's lost...

Corn on the cob holders work perfectly.

Go RAMBO style!

Razorhog · 02-24-2010, 06:33 PM

Awesome suggestions! I've got some corn cob holders that would work great!

Patrick B · 02-24-2010, 06:36 PM

Yes they would! Never thought of that. Just stay away from any single pronged smooth contraption and you are good to go.

These are made from aluminum:

$50!! I'll save that money for cigars and use the corn cob holder

Edit: I see BigAsh beat me to it!

Matches work great! Looks like a tiny hotdog though lol

Use your fingers. Just toughen 'em up a bit.

slickster81 · 02-25-2010, 05:42 AM

Works great as a nub holder, doesn't slip or spin....oh, and they also work pretty well as a draw poker too!

Ever hear the expression "Stick that in your pipe and smoke it"? I've done that a few times to finish off a particularly good cigar.

But if my pipe isn't handy, a toothpick or one of those swizzle stick "swords" works okay too.

Toothpicks work for me

I like the Corn Cob holder idea, I would try RAMBO style but I am a little clumsy and it would leave some battle wounds..
