Rolling my own with teacher Sam Leccia

Must have been a great experience.
I hope to roll a cigar one day.

Awsome, Frank! From that distance, it looks like a top-shelf roll to me. Great experience. Thanks for sharing this!

Being the first cigar I got to cut the leaf and roll all on my own I think I will be keeping this baby around for a while.

But I have something else up my sleeve LOL

To cool Frank... To cool...

I don't think I'd smoke that either! You can't smoke the 1st cigar you ever rolled! It's a keeper!

Man, it looks like you did a really good job for your 1st one too. Excellent job BTW!!! Was it hard?

I have been playing around with switching wrappers on cigars for about a year now, the hardest part about that is getting the wrappers off with hurting them. But these wrappers are already cut and ready to go when I get the off.

The hard part rolling this cigar was cutting the wrapper leaf and doing the cap! Sam does the triple cap and uses the same leaf as the wrapper, he doesn't use a different piece (except for the very top round cap). So doing the cap was pretty hard, but its awesome to learn how. I plan on getting good at it LOL

About how long does it take?
It looks to me, if you ever have a job problem, you could take a look at a Professional Cigar Roller!

Great pics looks like you had fun. I want to start rolling my own blends once I sharpen up my skills.

Some videos with tips would be nice. Especially for the caps.

That looks like a ton of fun. For your first cigar, it looks pretty excellent to me! I'm jealous, I'd love to learn to do that one day.

[harley33]

That looks too cool. I am jealous. I would keep that stick.
