Cigar Case

[Jcparry]

I use dowel rods or the metal tubes some cigars come in as the mold. After everything is tooled, stained/dyed, and stitched, wet the leather and use the dowels or tubes and a bone folder to shape or mold the slots for the cigars.

I made one the using the same process as KFC2013, except that I dyed the leather before wet forming and I may have used pvc pipe instead of dowels.

This method seems easier to me than forming each side and then sewing it together. Just feels like there's less room for error as far as getting things lined up.
