Does anybody have a particular method of doing this? I’m just screwing around making Burley Pucks. Haha.

Sweet!  It looks like the press did its job.

The first fruits of my labor are coming to you since you were so kind to donate these fine tobaccos @Kmhartle

But, Why?

@PappyJoe I was watching a bunch of YouTube videos about pressing your own. I saw various methods and was just curious if anyone does press their own.

Also, as a means of sending tobacco through the mail to my Smoking club members in a compact and unique way for fun.

I really like crumble cakes. They hold moisture longer, and it seems like interesting flavor things happen. I thought about building a press by making a 5 sided box out of 3/4 plywood. Then I was going to use another piece of plywood and a c clamp to finish the device.

This is something I have never done on my own. I tinker with blends to better suit my taste at times. But looks interesting and can’t wait to try it

@Woobie I’m hoping the tobaccos flavor nicely and meld together well
