Draw Tools Question

SmokeyJoe · 04-27-2009, 09:44 AM

Don't know what is the "right" way necessarily...

However, while holding the cigar gently, but firmly, I put the Henry's down the center of the clipped head. I slowly work it down the length of the cigar until I feel it "free up" a bit - getting past whatever plug may have been causing the resistance.

Used that technique twice this weekend and saved a nice cc and a quality nc. Hope it helps...

I've found that a lot of the time the "plug" is in the band area so I start slow and and go a little bit at a time. It helps to wiggle it a little. (thats what she said)

Inevitably you will poke through the side a few times. But with practice you will get better at lining things up and getting it straight the first time. Lanceros are always a challenge.
