Homemade cigarette box

[KnightsAnole]

I recently gave up on commercial cigs and decided to try my hand at rolling my own but, I needed a place to store all the loose cigs- came up with this. There are 4 layers of cedar inserts in the bottom and 2 layers on the sides. Exterior is finished with  hemp seed oil and the interior is natural. I also loosened up the action on the slide lid and made it magnetic. When I showed the wife she just rolled her eyes but, I like the way it came out, so thought I’d share it with people who understand….

Thanks guys. All my cigs contain 5% plugged Rafael Gonzales panatelas. The RG has a beautiful floral aroma if you shred it and jar it for a week or so. Good in the pipe too.

Thats pretty cool! I need some ideas for things to do with my old cigar boxes.  I don't throw them out as I like them too much.

Yea I roll em with a powermatic, takes me less than 5 minutes to roll a pack, literally less time than it takes to go in a store and buy em. I buy all organic whole leaf tobacco, de-stem and shred it myself though which adds a bit more time but it costs me about $1.50 make a pack. It couldn’t be easier and the taste improvement works too.

Well done @KnightsAnole, well done indeed.
