    Awesome idea bro, these look cool you should patent them.

    If you are only sending a couple, I imagine a padded envelope would work. Do you need my address???

    Really, though, I could envision these being really helpful for lots of people. Personally, I have herfs on my second story deck all the time and people are always setting their cigar down on the railing and hoping a breeze doesn't roll it off to its demise below. These would be perfect. Patent them now!!!

    The way I typed that out may have sounded wrong. What I meant was the cost of sending these out individually to you fellow BOTL.

    I'd chip in for some as well. I can think of no less than half a dozen places they would come in handy.

    While smoking cigars, I had a good long chat with my brother in law about these. (he's a patent attorney). He said it would be very difficult to patent something like this. The process would be quite time consuming and expensive. Also the fact that I'm using material from a company that I'm working for etc.etc.etc. Plus other complicated details that are just too many to mention.
    Instead he said to pass out a few then later sell a few and give it a name. I came up with "Stogie stand". Simple, catchy, memorable. The name itself will be mine. He even created a simple website for me. www.stogiestand.com .I dunno if it's up yet. If it is, it's probably blank.

    Anyways ... with all the positive feedback from you guys, I decided to mail one to each BOTL that commented on this thread. Selling these will be later down the line (which I will definitely try to do) So through this thread if you asked for one or said something positive about it, I will be sending you one. It may take awhile as I can't afford to send each one Priority and the list is quite long. I have a list of names but I don't have all the addys. So who ever has a Master BORK o Dex or what ever lol, pls PM me.


    btw each of these are "prototypes" if you will. They are all diff as they have their slight imperfections. With a little more work into them, I can definitely make them more eye appealing if that time comes but again these are from scrap pieces of material which I fabricated on my down time. I hope you understand.

    Thanks for your support guys."Stogie Stand" ftw

    Hey I can PayPal some money to you to cover shipping if needed. I think these are going to be a hit. Well done bro!

    Very cool Daniel. You are very creative. Like the new lancero holder.

    Great idea! I'm always moving around doing stuff while smoking a cigar, laying it down here and there. Many times I've had my cigar roll off onto the ground or floor, damaging it beyond repair. Your Stogie Stand would save many otherwise doomed cigars.

    Even though you might not be able to get a patent, you should contact The Bearded one and see if its something they'd be interested in marketing.
