Well, everyone else has a daily thread. Figured i'd give it a shot for my fellow backyard mechanics/weekend warriors :car: Feel free to post with/without Cigars! For example; Today i worked on my '79 Z28 Camaro re-jetting my Holley carb Then enjoyed a L'Atelier as the snow fell outside...

I bought 2 lighters at an auction a few days ago. One being a 1958 Zippo and another being a new-ish Im corona old boy. I'm planning on selling them but there's a problem. The old boy isn't working right, I can put butane in but it leaks out the top like the cap isn't pushing down all the way, I...

Over the years I have tried many different torch lighters and they all stop working and then they might start working a few months later or stop working altogether I have tried purging then and I only use xikar fuel I would love to know your experience with your lighter that you trust and...

Ok so Im obviously addicted to cigars, because I got some good deals on some boxes and have a few boxes coming my way. My current situation is I have a 500 count Medici, and a 50 count desktop humi that I smoke out of. The 500 count is not completely full but I dont put full boxes in it, my...

Yeah, working all weekend, until Wednesday morning.... Unless I quit and walk off this hell-hole. There right now as a matter of fact. Will have to smoke going to, leaving from, and at home. The Anti's have locked it up here. Who else is working this weekend?

This was one of those carve your own blocks of Briar. This particular one was one of the Nordings sold by PipesandCigars. I left the finish natural and just really worked some paragon wax into it to protect it and then buffed the crap out it. This was a really fun project and I can't wait...

I just got a Punch Ping lighter and I can't get it to light. I've tried scrolling the side wheel, and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Can anyone tell me what the instructions say?

I'm an IT professional so I sometimes have to work on evenings or weekends to do the kind of work that can't be done during normal business hours, i.e. taking down important systems for maintenance. Fortunately, this can often be done from home. So tonight I made the best of the situation and...

So, theLurch and I went to a shop that we got to once in a while the other day. This shop usually has a good selection of premiums and it has the largest walk in humidor in the state. I'm strolling around when I see a box of Ashton VSG's that look wierd. I pick them up and it was mold. I told...

I seasoned my humidor with the the 84% boveda packs and placed the 72% packs in immediately after the 14 days. It has been a month since I switched out the packs and my hygrometer is still reading at 80%...I've tried salt testing and even used the boveda calibrator so I know my hydrometer is not...

So here is the latest on Jerry. They have been using steroids to bring down the swelling in his brain. So he is looking better. They did the colonoscopy and found no cancer. This morning they did another MRI on his liver and found that the mass is blood related, but not cancer. They are bringing...

I am sure who needs to know already knows but just incase I am having problems with the Home link. It gives me a not found error when I use it.

I've only been smoking cigars for a few months, thus, I haven't tried all that many brands, really. So when I get a large (for me) order from Atlantic cigar today ( see here: http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/481/dsc0010sl2.jpg ), I'm quick to explore all that which has become my new...

I bought the large round humidifier of 65% beads. My humidity was at 62% before I put it in the humidor and about 4 days later I'm down to 55%. I have done the salt test and trust my hygrometer. The beads are all clear and I just don't see that they are helping. What could be wrong?

I just went through a brief period of time where nothing I smoked tasted good. Not bad really, but for a couple of weeks, everything tasted a little off; for whatever reason, the flavor and enjoyment just wasn't there. I'm talking regulars and favorites that I typically love. Then, Friday...
