Compartmentalized herfador

pektel · 08-26-2011, 06:48 PM

I'm on the search for one. One that holds sticks is fine and dandy, but one that has compartments for other things (draw tool, cigar glue, cutter, and lighter) would be preferable.

What does everyone else use for this stuff? Lately I've been using the backpack case for my camera, but would like something that houses all my cigar gear in one place.

Thanks for the input, and I look forward to the responses!

I carry a 50 count around most of the time, and removed the bottom two trays.

I then took a 2" thick piece of foam and replaced the bottom two rows of trays, cutting out slots for a small can of butane, lighter, pinch, draw tool, glue, nubbers, etc.

This still gives me storage for 30 sticks + all the accoutrements that I might need.

This keeps me equipped for all but the largest of herfs.

Pics on request, if that helps...

I use and old Samsonite briefcase. It has flaps in the lid that I use for stuff and the bottom holds a lot of cigars.

P.S. The Ronson gas is for emergencies... My "go to" fuel is Vector, but I have pretty much everything I need JUST IN CASE.

irratebass · 08-26-2011, 11:41 PM

Thanks, great idea Ted and 30 sticks is more than enough for traveling.

Depends on where you travel. I try and go to Marblehead Ohio every August, and 30 cigars ain't NEARLY enough for that trip!

I take it this is the Shack Herf?

Good thread, Great idea on the 50 count... I might just look into something like that.

icehog3 · 08-27-2011, 12:38 PM

Peter, have you checked out Devan's thread on his traveldor? I saw it at Shack and it was pretty impressive.

NCRadioMan · 08-27-2011, 12:47 PM

I just throw everything I need in my case with my cigars. Normally three lighters, Palio and draw tool.
