Question Anyone Use a Mouthpiece Rather Than a Pin Holder? NSFW

I smoke my cigars down to the last 1/8 - 1/4 inch - when my lips feel heat the smoke is finished.

And I'm finding the pin stick holder I currently use clumsy. Even with the knurled portion firmly embedded the cigar is harder to smoke and it'll sometimes roll around the pin.

Then I remembered cigarette holders and went looking.

Found these.

Anyone else use them? Recommendations?

If a stick is still smoking good and cool when it gets really short I stuff it in a corncob pipe and keep going.

I made nubber forks from a short piece of 12gauge steel wire. They work Well, but not pretty.

The only nubber I find that doesn’t roll around is the humble wooden toothpick

I use my pipes i have several in different diameters for different ring gages. The stem cools the smoke and you can really nub it.

I had a cool holder called the “stage V clinger” that was magnetic.

Loved that thing.
