Those are stamps and ink pads, for making the labels.

hmm I went to roll a batch before I got my 6x44 mold and My fillers alot more crumbly than my first batch I had. Even my viso is flaky. Am I only one that dampens the seco,ligero =filler a little to prevent flake when rolling? I keep it in bags and air tight container so the airs not the issue.

Finally got my 5er in today after a little detour. They look amazing, very nicely rolled, nice weight to them. Going to let them rest a bit before trying one.

Man Drew you need to tape the stamps together or something, hahah. Stamping every letter individually seems excessive, especially with your production picking up. These sticks are looking amazing Drew, how are they smoking these days?

Oh and I am a big fan of your recent corona molds! Keep up the great work! I am looking forward to meeting you this weekend!

Haha I go to the hobby supply store and get a giant sheet of paper, then cut 1cm x 3 inch strips and stamp the letters on with individual rubber letter stamps. Cheaper than buying them online, most places want a $75 set up fee on top of the 100 you will spend on bands.


I don't smoke many of my own. But I have not heard a lot of bad. I will be having some this week when I go to Michigan as well as bringing some down this weekend.

Drew Looking good brother! Getting some pro looking parts!
It was great meeting you in Pitt and trying the Maddies. The one you gave Ken was definitley better than the lighter one I burned, better draw too. Mine was good but Kens was great!
