I ran into those vases at a discount shop today, bought 2 of them, now I have to smoke a lot to fill those puppies up.

Awesome lol... When I first started smoking, I would put the cigar bands in my wallet. Well that didn't last too long lol.

Saving mine for a photo-mosaic. Still looking for a "prize winning" photo. Probably a self-portrait! :) You know. . . me smoking a fine cigar with my buds!

Photo-Mosaic:
Each cigar band will be a color pixel in a large format poster (4' x 6' size)! Anyone have the time to scan my 10-gallon fish tank full of bands? (12 years worth!!) Also need a program to map all the images into a color pixel layout.

Just count 100 and weigh them! Then weigh the rest. . . simple estimating math.

different sizes bands, different weight in paper. That won't work :)

Make a collage of them in a picture frame. It comes out very nice IMO.

I have all of mine tossed in my first ever box purchase - A Fuente Hemingway Classico :)

I had the same Idea, so I saved all my bands in an Olivia Serie V box. Gonna put mine in laminate underneath a glass table!!!

I posted the first picture on my dutch cigar forum and someone send me a box full of bands which almost filled the vase.
