Re: Cigar draw tools?
 

I posted I do not own one but would use one because as of now I use bamboo skewers and sometimes the split wrappers because thier are probably thicker than a draw tool

My favorite is the ashtray, followed by the lighting of another cigar.

Is this a MASH reference?

If so, very funny. If not, I will slowly back out of the room!

Re: Cigar draw tools?
 

That's funny that a few of you mentioned the worm threader. I thought of that also. I make my own bass lures so currently I am using a .051 Buzzbait wire to poke mine.

I think I smell a worm threader group buy coming. :ss Maybe CA customized worm threaders. SSWwwwweeeettttt!

I work by a BassProShop... I am going to pick up the worm threader and give it a try...

Now we can't have a draw poker thread with out adding the one from the long gone Petroglyph Design. Here is a pic of mine.

It's hard to see, but the pointed end is serrated(sp?) and helps keep the hole from closing back up.

The hanger trick usually works for me.:pi

I have a set of Henry's Draw Tools, and they've saved some otherwise unsmokeable sticks.

Re: Cigar draw tools?
 

Paper clip, but worm threader sounds like a better solution!

Re: Cigar draw tools?
 

+1 on the worm threader... Found them at a Bass Pro Shop in Tennessee for $2.49... They work very well.

New to the Asylum. How's it goin? I made my own tool but never use it. If the cigar is plugged, I will try to cut it a little shorter. Fifty percent of the time this works. If it is truely plugged, I throw the cigar away. I don't want to spend this precious time fighting a cigar.

Re: Cigar draw tools?
 

Sometimes throwing away a rare or expensive stick is not a viable option... Just my :2

I do use your approach on torpedos or belicoso cigars with a great deal of success, however.

Re: Cigar draw tools?
 

I have an old set of Henry's Draw Correction tools that I rarely use. I've found that they can open up a plugged cigar, but also do a great job of insulating the heat as it passes through the newly formed tunnel. As a result some of the cigars I've used them on tend to get hot much faster than normal.

Re: Cigar draw tools?
 

I said "Yes", but mine is made from a clothes hanger, it's worked fine the few times I've needed it. I usually dont have too many problems with plugged cigars, or draws that are too tight. I might use my clothes hanger a couple times a year, so I just dont need it often enough to considered buying one...
