Check out my photo album to see the ash tray I made yesterday out of a block of wood I found at my house. You can also see my pretty face.

Yep I haven't smoked anything I've gotten lately from this board. I'm resisting the urge to light up all those good smokes. I feel kinda guilty smoking them as soon as I get them. I'm thinking I'll have to smoke one of the Cubans as this will be my first chance for C4S.

Isn't that a Jeff Foxworthy joke? "If you've ever made an ashtray out of wood...You might be a redneck."

Just kidding Adam. Hey that Power Ranger and Connie look familiar... Wink

Oh and if anyone saw that pic of a Dom Monte CDA tube titled "Cuban Cigars" don't give Adam a hard time. I sent him a RASS in that tube to protect it.

I metioned in the description that those cigars were mostly from you. I guess I should have taken the RASS out of the tube. Stupid me.

Close, that guy is Italian. he carved a VW and a whole house where everything inside the house is wood. Flowers, books, clothes, bedding, pencils. Search around for Wooden Ferrari and you will find his pics.

The ashtray was cool, but you can always do what some friends of mine came up with:

Take a nice heavy block of wood. Screw an eyebolt into the top. Run a pully from a tree branch 20 foot high. Place a similar hunk of wood directly below it...

...Use it to gratuitously smash useless (or not) household objects.


Lots of great fun.

What did you use to hollow out the middle and get it so evenly gouged out? Thats a fantastic job. You've inspired me!

Wood chisels from Walmart. Sand paper to finish it off. Was still a little scratch after finished sanding but the charing removes and signs of that.

That looks great. Do you think you may try and add a finger or two so it can safely cradle your smoke should you need to put it down? It really is a nice looking ash tray.
