    Default new to forum

    Hello all

    I am new to the forum, fairly new to cigar smoking. About 6 months ago I found the wonderful world of online cigar stores and forums. Since then I have been acquiring a collection I am proud of and sucking up as much knowledge as I can.

    Here's some pics of my collection:

    Welcome to the board. It's obvious you're a Gurkha fan. Keep those Macanoodles around for when non-cigar smokers need something and you don't want to waste a quality smoke on them.

    Also, before your next shipment of cigars, you may want to invest in a cooler rather than another desktop humi.

    I like aquarium silicone, but make sure after using it you let it sit a couple days to "de-fume" and you'll be golden. Though if it's wood you're dealing with, then all natural, non-toxic elmers wood glue should work, again, just let it air out a few days.

    welcome from DC, looks like you found C-Bid.
