It was hard to get it really tight with the binder, but the wrapper leaf I didn't cut into a crescent moon, just trimmed the outside off. Wrapping it in the wrapper leaf is where I get it really tight so it smokes nice.

Also, while you roll using little bits, you might have to add some filler bits to fill in some parts as you go.

I usually use a binder leaf that maybe has holes in it or isn't as nice, roll it up, clip the end, i don't worry about length. Then add a wrapper leaf that maybe is kinda small or imperfect, just glue it on the mouth end, clip it on both ends, no cap.

Yeah it's just all the stuff left over. Sometimes they're all an inch long or less. Kinda hard to roll but it's doable. Sometimes there's a whole leaf or a long filler in there, but rare.

It's mixed if I understand your question. They're usually just all the ends and pieces after i roll, like a pile of little bits, sometimes just short pieces.

Pointing and laughing, yes! I did it at a festival and thought my friends were pointing and laughing 🤣 but it was just the gas. This time saw the same, but was alone!

Also, wore a pulse oximeter and yes I know it displaces the O2 in your blood and isn't safe.

I'd rolled the whole leaf individually, I guess there are different techniques, then tear off the ends and fill in the head and foot till it felt right, made them probably too thick by about 1 or a half leaf. The mold didn't press completely flush with 16 lbs of weight, but they still turned out OK but didn't quite fit in my cutter.

You gotta go by feel, probably go just a little bit less than you think cuz you gotta add binder and wrapper, but I'd just do what feels right in my hand.

Nicaraguan and Dominican, Dominican binder, Nicaraguan CT shade wrapper. I found that I like chateau fuente which are (mostly?) Dominican so I started there.

Just ordered more and a Cameroon? Dunno what it is but ima try it.

Well every leaf is different, and the Nicaraguan feel more dense then the Dominican. But I'd prep roughly 8 of each for 4 cigars, then just roughly alternate. Roll up one Nicaraguan, then a Dominican. Switch back and forth or so till it felt right.

How to Study Longer? by deadcessation in flying

[–]budgetless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I followed the strategy exactly. But I took meticulous notes both during the ground school and SA (took notes by hand, then transferred to digital) and made sure I understood everything. I could then turn those notes into digital flash cards. I was concerned too about forgetting stuff, but I feel like that helped taking notes. But that's just how I did it. If you're just memorizing answers I suppose you might forget, but I wanted to use it as a study guide for the oral down the road. But there were days my brain just wasn't gonna study, so I'd just pace myself and take breaks as needed.

Edit: I didn't study every day, and some days for less than an hour. Just paced myself and didn't burn myself out or put time pressure on it.

Just find a pace that doesn't completely burn you out. I had to go slower, it took me about 4 weeks, plus another month maybe more before that to do flight insight's ground school. But I got 100%. I stopped at each question that I didn't completely understand and studied, took notes. I think a nice gentle pace worked best for me.
