A cigar ring gauge device??
OK so a recent thread made me think of something. I searched around a little but could not find one... does anyone know if there is some sort of thing made of metal something that has holes in it to messure the ring gauge of a cigar... I am sure there are some ot there.

Does anyone have a link. I know I will find one given time but I figured I would ask as someone may know right away!

Thanks in advance guys (and girls)

No metal thing, but there are cigar journals that have printed circles with different RGs on the pages.

Re: A cigar ring gauge device??
The Cigars Int'l catalog always includes a sheet with ring gauge circles, usually on the order form page. If you'd like one, PM me your address & I'll send one to you.

Re: A cigar ring gauge device??
I think I have seen one like that... thats not to say I will not be PMing you smokin5!!

I have seen ones that I print out and I am pretty sure that I have seen cardboard ones but I want a nice one... brass would be great. Am I alone on this?

I am still looking.

Re: A cigar ring gauge device??
I have one that is a leaf you hang on the wall and it has brass guides for the ring gauges. I will try to take a pic tomorrow and see if it has any company info on the box. Not sure how much it cost as it was a gift. I had seen them on cigarbid before.

JaKaAch that would work I just read what ring gauges are...

So yes that would work fine... but... I like shiny things. I know even though I could get one like for not much money, I would sooner spend more money and get one that said cigar gauge thing or something... I know ridiculous right, I really can not help it. I am weird that way!

What I was going to suggest. If you cannot find it at a office supply store (probably should be able to), then a drafting store. I have one that is circa 1977, from my days in drafting classes. Looks the same as the one above. No techno advance here, folks!!!

Re: A cigar ring gauge device??
Funny you should mention it. I was at the local B & M today taking a visual inventory and I noticed 2 such devices hanging in the humidor. I think they where made of a hard but flexible plastic, dark in color and marked with the various RG along with a linear measuring scale. If you like I can go back tomorrow or when I get a chance and purchase said device(s), take a photo and post it here. I will also ask if they can order more. Does that sound like a plan?
