A mini fridge dies and a humidor is born!

[lvfcrook1503]

Gents, I was very sad Saturday morning, when I came home to find my mini fridge(which I use to store my more rare beers) had died....After 10 wonderful years, she finally kicked the bucket.

However, a ray of sunshine peaked through the window and my day was salvaged when I realized that this "dead" mini fridge could now be born again as a humidor!!!

So the plan is to make this my cc only humi. Going to keep it closer to 60% The game plan so far is to 1) remove anything I can...Compressor unit, freezer portion, ect and patch the holes to make it as air tight as possible. 2) Clean it with baking soda/water. 3) Use the Xikar purotemp wireless hygrometer set up.

My questions are:

1) Should I find a way to add some spanish Cedar? Or will the boxes and couple loose trays be enough?

2) Will HF beads still be good to use in something this size? Or should I look into active humidity?
If my measurements are correct I need somewhere in the 2lb range of HF beads.

Here's what I'm working with so far (sorry for the crappy iphone pics):
