Ashstand contest (shamelessly "borrowed")

[WOXOF]

Here's a warm up smoke for me. How many pictures can we submit. If it's only one, I don't want this one to be it. I can do better.

[BigMacFU]

Here's my first one:

[CgarDan]

Good stuff guys. I admire your dedication. When I light up a smoke I think maybe this one will be a good one for the contest by every time with about an inch of ash I get lazy and get in the mindset that I would rather get full enjoyment out of it than worry about the ash falling off. Oh well will have to do it one day

[Evillepaintball]

If my local sho still has some in stock, I may have a secret weapon...I'm definitely going to have to try this one.

[Newfie]

Hey DrewDogg, any limit to the ring guage?? (illilli, C_Juan and Mauied will know where I'm going here!!)

[drew_goring]

Contest has been extended to see if we can get a few more entries.

Newf, there is no ring gauge limit.

[BigMacFU]

Newf, do you have the HUGE Indian Tabac cigar that's over a foot long?

[CgarDan]

This one is by the painting of the guy who knows a thing or 2 about ..........well smoke




A beautifull lady on my right arm




A beautifull lady on my left




And I am not ashamed to say I smoked them both

[heftysmokes]

Damn, Dan, you need to dust off the top of your TV! LMAO

[WOXOF]

Here's the latest attempt after a shitty night at work.


The hounds decided they would pose with the cigar.

[drew_goring]

Damn, nice work. What kind of cigar is that?

[WOXOF]

Damn, nice work. What kind of cigar is that?

Trinidad, not sure which one. It was still holding a firm ash at 1 and 1/2 inches so I figured I'd try again. I had to baby it to get it there but it took my mind off of everything else.

[LeojVS]

wel, heres my entry. Prob a little late.... Its a fonseca serie F. If you wondering why the pic is a little shaky, it was my bucks weekend, and thats a bottle of Arak behing it

[LeojVS]

one more. Only a baby, but im a trying

[drew_goring]

Nice pics guys. Keep 'er going. Only 10 days left for this contest!

[Ginseng]

Well, I guess it is time for me to have another contest.

The prize will consist of:

1 Opus X (size TBD)
1 RyJ Coronas
1 Partagas PCE
a handful of my "dailys"

I borrowed this idea from another board. I hope they don't mind

The rules are as follows:

1) The stick must have been smoked between Aug. 1/06 and Sept. 30/06.
2) The stick must be free-standing on the ash with no support or assist, other than he ash itself.
3) Your favorite lighter must be present in the picture.
4) The top 5 will be determined by me and then voted on by the memebers of this site.
5) The poll will run from Oct.1/06-Oct.7/06 and the winner will be announced shortly therafter.
6) Any other rules decided by me will be implemented as I see fit. I make the final judgement .
7) Have FUN!

Here is my first entry. Although it would be disqualified for not including my favorite lighter

Hey Drew,

I think I know where this contest was originally posted.

Nice refinement of the rules. I'll have to consider some of those for the contest next spring.

[CgarDan]

Hey Wilkey glad to see you found your way here. Hope you can post more your CP reviews in particular are awesome

[CgarDan]

Last minute entry




The ash on this baby was so tight I could have done an ash stand smoking it to the nub, but I was not sure I would enjoy smoking the label

So I actually made another ash stand with the same cigar. By the way cool volcano look at the bottom of the stand

Fuente Chateaue (feable attempt)
