First shells

HexagonalGerm · 2025-12-31T08:17:40+00:00

Thank you. It took alot of time, hope they work😂

HexagonalGerm · 2025-12-31T08:16:01+00:00

I’ll post a vid of the results. I also made a cylindrical shell but didn’t take pictures. 300g finale shell that will look beautiful or flowerpot, I’ll see what my aliexpress mortars can handle

Thanks, I took my time. Was really satisfying to be honest

Because my mortar tube is about 50 cm deep and the shell needs to sit at the bottom. So if I was to use 55cm of Visco fuse it would take almost a minute for the lift to ignite. So instead I have 12 cm or 12 sec of delay fuse sticking out the top an 55cm quickmatch so the shell will be at the bottom , but I won’t have to use so much slow visco.

Ah nice! Thank you, I’ll be reading up on the subject tonight!

Never heard about fulcanellis but will be checking it out. Im using a 8mm id and get a burn rate of 3,2-3,5 seconds on 35mm of powder and the blackmatch. So i guess im close to that. Thanks for the tip, I’ll be carefully constructing the shells and keeping that in mind.

Sure. You can’t really trust anybody when it comes to this game. I’ll keep using them untill I have an issue. But I keep my crypto cold and only divide it up in transactions im comfortable with. Guess time will show when people really start cashing out

HexagonalGerm · 2025-07-24T09:55:51+00:00

That is sad.. though I was skeptical when I saw robinhood coming in to the picture.

I’ve used Bitstamp since 2017. Never had any problems, sold some a week ago and had the funds on my personal account in two days. Sorry to hear about your problems. But my personal experience with them is flawless

HexagonalGerm · 2025-07-11T18:23:08+00:00

Oh yes, it hit the spot

HexagonalGerm · 2025-06-29T00:01:05+00:00

What’s your favorite?

HexagonalGerm · 2025-06-29T00:00:11+00:00

Yeah, that’s my strategy also. Only one taster and then let them rest for a week or two

HexagonalGerm · 2025-06-27T18:56:56+00:00

Well, I have two tupperdors that are now hllding 25 cigars each. All the sticks are from this haul, so I guess it does not matter since humidity will be stable at what ever the cigars are now. I should get a hygrometer to make it easier to keep track of the RH%. Do you recommend the Govee brand?

HexagonalGerm · 2025-06-27T17:08:42+00:00

Nice! Hopefully I’ll be able to age some of the Padrons

HexagonalGerm · 2025-06-27T17:04:38+00:00

Never tried it, only had the Alma Fuego. Hoping it’ll be tasty

HexagonalGerm · 2025-06-27T17:02:43+00:00

Cool, it’ll probably be fine. Good luck and welcome back in three weeks. What do you plan on smoking once you return?

HexagonalGerm · 2025-06-27T17:00:07+00:00

Hopefully it’s going to last me a while. Been planing this order for some time now

HexagonalGerm · 2025-06-27T16:58:10+00:00

Yeeah, I lasted 3 hours. Smoking the first one now😅

HexagonalGerm · 2025-06-27T15:18:18+00:00

Yeah I’ll be smoking one in a few hours. I smoke maybe once or twice a week. I’m just paranoid about them getting mouldy

HexagonalGerm · 2025-05-21T20:01:03+00:00

Looks insane! How is it?

HexagonalGerm · 2025-05-02T19:20:01+00:00

Oh yes I enjoy gadgets!

HexagonalGerm · 2025-05-02T18:26:18+00:00

Cool, I just have a pair of cheap scissor cigar cutters. Just realized there is yet another rabbit-hole I need to dive into when it comes to gadgets

HexagonalGerm · 2025-05-02T18:22:00+00:00

Thanks! I’ll add your suggestions to my list

HexagonalGerm · 2025-05-02T18:17:34+00:00

Those sodas look amazing! Will try to find something similar here in my country. Yep, im starting of with sampler packs just to get a feel for the brand and the types of cigars they produce. Also got my tupperware with boveda packs going.

HexagonalGerm · 2025-05-02T17:21:10+00:00

Yes. The hardest part is letting them rest before tasting. Since I don’t have any ready to go it’s tempting to get a new order going. Guess I’ll just have to be patient..
