I am fairly new at cigar rolling. I have rolled about 15 so far. The first 5 were laughable. I have a couple different moulds (rounded and straight) but I wanted one with some character. The mould is a 6" by 60 ring gauge. It is made out of two part resin (basically epoxy). The cigar pictured was a medium-strong blend that I just threw together this morning to try it out. I had about half a leaf too much size wise and will adjust next time. Will likely wrap it in some Mexican San Andres.

Thanks guys! The cigars I have smoked that are this size generally take about 90 minutes to get through...but that is generally how I roll (pun).

I like it! Did you make that mold? extra points for DIY stuff.

Thanks! I did make the mold. I turned a mock-up of the cigar on the lathe. Made a frame and poured a two piece mold with the mock up in the center. I am a DIY junky! I am planning to make another one that has the shape of a LFD Mysterio.
