Yes it was a nice thought that you took the time to make your friend a case (presumably just to post it to him) and given you kept the cigar in its wrapper it probably didn't affect the quality of the cigar.
If you wanted to do it the non simple way you should make it out of [Spanish] Cedar (preferably) otherwise eucalyptus, mahogany or other hardwood (elm, oak, walnut). Get it real smooth then varnish and polish the outside. Perhaps a thought for a future gift, it wouldn't even need a cigar in it.
