I was thinking that maybe at some point it would kind of cool for FTT members that roll their own to send each other cigar bombs and compare, try different blends etc...
That would be pretty neat, kind of like the seed swapping thread.
I've been trying to convince our affable host to add a swap section.

These are my first attempts at rolling.
The first on the left is a Dominican Seco, Criollo Seco 98,Habano Viso and Aleman Oscuro wrapper blend, next two are pure Criollo 98, next two are pure Dominican. Just wanted to see what each individual type smoked like so I can recognize the taste later when I blend.
All done by hand, no mold and only a wrapper on the first.
Looking at all these beautiful sticks from everyone else is making me want to try them. ..here's a few of mine that l still have mellowing and aging a bit longer that I haven't smoked yet..

I don't really have any consistencies in size etc..don't weigh or count leaves..I think it's a good idea though to get a uniform size and shape. .I don't use molds..only occasionally roll in paper at binder stage... if im making them to give to someone else..but usually roll with pretty dry binder and wrapper in one sitting so I can smoke them straight away.
What about postage for one of these
