Alright, Finally got the order in for the leaves. SO it will be a couple of weeks but let it begin. I will posting what I do and how it goes.

Looks like I won't be getting a second mold. FedEx said I should contact the supplier and ask for a new item, or refund.

I am waiting on a call back from the company, she said she would call FedEx to see what she needed to do.

Honestly, if I owned the company, I would have sent out a new mold and just expected the lost one be returned if it shows up.

So I guess we are sticking with 5x50 for now.

Sorry to hear that =(

Is it something they can easily replace? It sounds like it. Not sure why they wouldn't just send a replacement either.

I have and still am going through a ton of videos on youtube. I ran across this one today and I found it most interesting.

Anyone want to take a stab at what looks off in this video?

He was using an accordion method to roll rather than the entubado method most often associated with Cuban cigars? Just a guess, awesome video.

Bingo!! I have watched tons of video's and every one of the Cuban Torcedor's use the entubado method. This guy is supposedly over the Partagas factory and their rollers, but uses the accordion bunching? Weird.
