    The "Show Off Your Humidor" Pics thread

    As the title suggests, here's the place to show off your pride and joy. I had this custom built for me last spring by a very good friend. The finish is bloodwood and ebony. There are three trays:

    If you're referring to my humidor in the original post- about 18 months.

    No need to compare here! It's not the size of the humi, nor how much it's filled, nor what it's filled with; but the enjoyment that you get out of it that matters.

    The stock has changed quite a bit since I took these over a year ago. It's an old gun cabinet I found on craigslist and stripped out, lined with Spanish Cedar and made it a big ass humidor. KL is no more, I just use HCM beads now.

    Wow, I'd never seen pictures of that before (if you had posted previously). That's gorgeous!

    I'd love to do something like that someday, but I don't know if my finishing skills are up to the task.

    Thanks! It's easier than you think if you are patient. If you ever decide to do it and have any questions, or anyone else does for that matter pm me and I'll help as much as I can.

    I will ask if I ever try it. It would definitely be a fun project over a period of time, and a nice challenge. I'm pretty handy, but patience for fine work isn't always my forte. I have done a few things that turned out alright though, so maybe if I ever see a decent cabinet like that when I'm cruising craigslist..

    That's a beautiful looking humidor. Can you really keep the humidity stable just using beads in that thing? I own a similar sized humi (now have two) and I tried everything but the the only way I can keep a stable humidity was to invest in an Oasis II-XL Electronic Humidifier.
