GENERAL DISCUSSION TO INCLUDE OFF TOPIC / Any cigar smokers on the GG?
« Last post by goodfellow on Today at 01:56:01 PM »
Southern Draw “Firethorn” in size Toro. I’ve had this cigar before, but can’t remember whether I liked it or not. It a bit harsh, but then again it’s very fresh. I get lots of pepper and baking spice, but it’s not very smooth.

I have some others that I’ll rest in the humidor for a few months and then revisit the cigar.

Right now it’s not very gratifying.

A short shank in a full size handle is hard to beat.

If you head through Grangeville, I can put you in touch with a bud there that works at 'the' shop for p&w and curtiss wright radial engines. It's a nice area too. Not too close or too far from spokane and boise.

Not this trip although i went thru there last trip.

Awhile back I decided to shorten all the shanks of my Grace drivers for more finesse/ control,  and I'm very glad I did.

Been thru that area of the States - nice folks! Was traveling towards Boise on my way to Seattle and broke down - in a snowstorm! Telephone repair guy just getting off his shift saw me on the side of the freeway and turned around to help me out. Saved me from possibly freezing to death!
Many years later the Mrs and I travelled to Yellowstone while visiting friend's in Rock Springs, Wyoming. Beautiful country!

You could always visit Tucson. We have the prettiest cactus and best Mexican food anywhere.  :))

This is how the old gal looks today. It was actually a rust bucket. I welded a piece of 16 gauge plate in the button of the tray and welded a bunch of holes throughout the rest of the frame work. The handles were like Swiss Cheese. So I pressed on a short piece of brass tubing that was hanging around my shop... I'd imagine that brass tubing is worth more than the whole project.  I'll be putting an automotive clear cost of everything tomorrow..
