The tubes for this one were painted with "fleckstone" and cast in PR. I had a devil of a time with this one including several false starts and one that chipped out while turning (and defied repair :(). I may redo it yet again as I noticed a flaw after I assembled it.



I like the general look of the blank and I think the amount of trouble I had was not representative (I haven't had that kind of trouble with other castings), so I think I'll try this again.

This is my first Ultra Cigar. I'm not sold on this kit, but I think it works with this blank (about as well as it works with anything).

Thanks for your thoughts.
