My Cigar Band Project
I have been saving most of my bands that came off in good shape and was considering my options on what to do with them..... I didn't have enough to make a tabletop (future plans) so I grabbed a decent sized frame and matboard on sale at a hobby shop. For once I finally found something to do while my girl shopped! On my days off I took the ones that were stilled rolled and put them into the phonebook and closed them up to flatten them out and then put a stack of books ontop of the phonebook.

The next day, I gathered the bands from the book and seperated them out by color, size, and maker. I didn't have much of a plan on how to arrange them, so I just went at it. I had a good number of Acid bands and figured they could be the top and bottom like a border. And randomly placed the others how they fit in. I used an acid free glue stick so the glue would not "yellow" and show later down the road. A few hours later and some sticky fingers here is what came out.



Not too shabby for my first project and what little money and time I have invested. I hung it in my computer room and it looks quite nice, if I do say so myself.
Let me know what ya think!

Im kinda looking towards making a small coffee table-top or maybe another larger picture collage.
If anyone would like to pass me along any bands they don't want, I'd be gratiously appreciative of them! Just throw them in an evelope and PM me and I will give you my address.


Shawn

Re: My Cigar Band Project
I'm sorry but am I the only one juvenile enough to catch the fingers comment?

Great idea though. I have been saving most of mine so far mostly to jog my memory about what I liked and didn't like though they are starting to blur.

A table top would look awesome, please share when you make it there

Re: My Cigar Band Project
Nice looking. I have been saving mine to do the same. I want to do that with a polyurethane pour.
