Custom Cigar ash tray

[Big Lewinsky]

Made this at work, snuck it in on a big job we did, , I saw a drop of Avonite in the rack from another job, cut 3 PCs, I used clear epoxy, clamped it up, then cut the angles on ea side, the routed out the bowl, ran through router table with a large core box bit, perfect for all cigs to lay in , ran a 45° bit around the edge, polished , prob costed 2k by the time it was done.

I just got the bird ash tray at a auto swap meet, 1$; the other I found at that Mexican store in Scottsdale, 15$
Lonsdales in cave creek was my smoke shop. They had Teetens too. Loved going out there.
I a,so got one from the restaurant that Jimmy Hoffa disappeared from too.

I always wanted to make a nice humidor, but it’s hard to make one as cheap as you can buy one.
I bought a big one from Thompson’s. I can’t make it for that.

What are teetens? Are you referring to infused cigars? Lars Tetens?

 

[Big Lewinsky]

Yes. I can’t find them anymore. I used to travel, I buy them from Seattle to Pittsburgh.

Did a quick google search. Atlantic Cigars seems to have some in stock.

My first humidor was a B Day present, it maintains a nice 70, but the wood swelled where the credo is ruined the cherry on the outside.
I bought a nice travel humidor, the vinyl detereorated and I called the company , and they didn’t care. Had to toss it.
