what kind of bunching technique do you use? I've been looking on youtube at different techniques and now I want to cut into a nub to figure out how they bunch them to stand.

I have tried a couple ways. Accordian style works really well, I also started doing a u shape with 2 seco leaves and then fold the ligero inside of the "u" with some leftover scrap wrapper that I have dried.

I just went back and read all eight pages. It was really interesting to watch the quality of construction improve in just a months time. I am amazed how many brothers you have inspired to try this. Excellent work.

So this is a mini that i made... dont want to use the name "Nub"


I just purchased some Maduro wrappers, so i will have a Dominican filled with a maduro wrapper shortly.

I have taken into consideration the sale of Roxy cigars, as it is difficult to sell them not having the proper licenses, I figure i will sell the Cigar bands only, and the "tobacco is not for consumption"

Fivers will be 25 shipped in the small flat rate box. How does that sound?

How about the "Roxy Stub" instead of "nub"?
