Blank cigar bands

Ok, apparently 3rd time is the charm. Just needed to press a little harder and it was nice and tight. I think these should work pretty well for anything the size of the PE or bigger, assuming they don't come loose in the humi. The montecarlo was just a little too thin.View attachment 54689
Good!

I figure they will work for all but the super small or super large ring gauge.
 
Ok... Last option, this one is a bit steep.
Real commercial custom cut bands (no glue)
On a whim I contacted a print shop that advertised making legit cigar bands, embossed, metal, foil, or whatever you want. Doesn't come cheap. Here's there response from an email.

Well it looks like I'm going to do this in the next 6 weeks. The same factory still will make them for us and Bob has already reached out to them. To make it worthwhile price-wise, I'm going to have to order 75,000 of them.
I'm not sure that's enough for your collection.

I will throw in as well. Get us a price break down.
 
I'll get enough to make sure I never run out again. I'd recommend the rest of you do the same! 😂
Sort of like telling a newb to go ahead and buy a 150qt cooler, because they’re gonna need it, and they say, “nah, 20qt is all I need now!” We all know what happens next. ;)

I’m in for 1k if it’ll help. I’ll use em to replace the Garcia y Vega bands!

Any update on this? I could use some blank bands

I have been using the silverware ones that a bunch of us got. They've been ok for the most part.. especially over cellos. Considering how cheap they are for the quantity, I'm glad I have them handy.

I think it was Chad who posted the link earlier in this thread. Something to at least consider in the interim.
