I'm looking for a one or two cigar ashtray to put in my shop. I'm willing to trade a "geek fiver" for it.

Let me know, thanks! :meansmoke:

I've got a great cigar collection - it's actually not a collection, because that would imply I wasn't going to smoke every last one of 'em.

Well, the first thing I would ask is..."An ashtray for your shop...HUH?"....and the second thing I would ask is..."Don't you have any tin cans hanging around your shop you could convert into an ashtray if you wanted to?" How about a couple of pieces of thin gauge mild steel sheet you could weld up into a suitable receptacle? Rack your brains, Mike, surely you can come up with something without having to trade off perfectly good cigars!  :biggrin:

Cut off a chunk from an old iron rake and turn it upside down. It holds cigars great!

That sounds like an idea too. I guess they have a higher class of redneck down in Arkansas than us po' folks up here in KY what with Mike wanting to get a store bought ashtray an' all when he has some perfectly good floor to drop ashes on...and ground outside the shop!  :confused:

I have "The Rock" ash tray, but you can't have it, it's one of a kind, LOL. Hit up some garage sales and find some cheapo ash trays.

I currently use a the a piece of bamboo balanced on a spring clamp I have clamped to a shelf. It works okay....

If like a decent ceramic/glass ashtray that I can set atop my beer fridge. Not because I don't want ashes on my shop floor, but because I don't like to set my cigar down in sawdust, or balance it precariously on the bandsaw.
