Thuya Burl Faux Cigar

[walshjp17]

Another faux cigar. Made from Thuya Burl and Buckeye Burl. Hardware is a Chrome Magnetic Vertex. Finished with Yorkshire Grit and Hampshire Sheen. Sold to my physical therapist for a Father's Day gift.

Don't know why they uploaded 90º off kilter.

John, if you are using an iPhone to take pictures with, try taking the pictures with the phone in the horizontal position. I did and now the pictures show up on the forum correctly.

Nicely done. Thuya burl is a great wood to use for these.

Terrific Cigar Pen John.
The Choice of the Thuya Burl, is an Ideal Substitute for the Tobacco Leaf Wrapping,
The Buck Eye Burl, makes Great Ash.
Great Finish,
Congratulations,
Brian.

Excellent!
I just realized that I hadn't seen any of these until recently, but IAP folks have been doing them since at least 2012!

So, now I want to make a few.

It appears there is no article in the library... anyone out there feeling like doing one?
I wouldn't mind to do one myself, once I iron out the details, but that is going to take a while, as my shop time is sparse these days.
The whole 'ashes' thing has me a bit perplexed.

Anyway, this one looks great!! Good on'ya! ...and thanks for sharing!!
