@webmost what do you consider when making a blend? Do pick a certain tobacco to stand out and blend around that?
I have been able to make a couple „ok“ nicotine bombs but I have aged them Frank style. I also have a limited stock, my next purchases will be some Nicaraguan, Cameroon, and Brazilian leaf.
Any tips for beginners

Got a small 5x48 mold. Looking to make a full size mold or two. Made a Lieberman setup. Couple of the newest attempts

I’ve been checking out both of those. Just haven’t made my mind up yet.
If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

I use both of those. There’s also Total Leaf Supply. I usually have my order the next day with them.
Leaf only sells by 1/4 lb so you can sample but unless you pay extra for expedited processing then it takes two weeks to receive your order.
Whole Leaf takes usually a week for delivery. They also have a forum that Webmost would post on.

Made my first mold. 5 1/2 x 48
Got my jig setup in a comfortable position for the top as you can see by the reduced burning15 -
Yes, there’s a certain wood used for molds but I couldn’t source it locally. I figured oak would do for a test run.

I’ve been considering making a couple. I figured oak or maple would work best. Let us know how it does.

Looks good enough to smoke, what's the blend?Thanks Chris, I’m trying lol. The filler is a combination of Nicaraguan grown San Andreas viso, Brazilian Cubra viso, and Sumatran seco, with a true Cameroon binder, and finished off with a Honduran Corojo oscuro wrapper. 5 3/4 x 42
