Josh I use mine as an on deck humi. I pulled the between the layers foam to fit in more sticks and added a cross piece to section off for longer and shorter smokes. I also cut a 2 piece Boveda holder and mounted them on the sides to hold 2 Bovedas. I replaced my foam with beads and cut in a spot for a hygro. Works pretty well to hold sticks I'm planning on in the next month or so.
Sorry about all those Tats on top - there's this month of Tats thing going on.....
No cigar until you get a par - birdie if it's a scramble !

That’s awesome, Tony! Somehow I envisioned your on-deck humidor as a regular desktop, wooden humidor.
@josh lucky 13
, Are you planning any trips where you would want to take that many sticks? Like a CigarBum Orgy perhaps??

I have a guys trip coming up in a week or so but only a couple others smoke cigars so I don't need 40. I think last year I took my 10 and my 15 and had more than enough. Orgy sounds like a fun trip half way across the country but, the problem with it is date. Thats full blown Football season. I give half of all my game checks to my daughter missing a game is taking money out of her pocket.
Maybe thats what I use for motivation when I wake up sore and tired all season?

Well, shit, if they came like that I'd buy one!
Nice work there Tony - I may have to look into something like this.

So 3 rounds of doosing in alcohol and feel confident its ready for use. Even most of the alcohol smell is gone. Maybe I will load up for my trip next week just for shits and giggles.

Dousing the humidor or you?
If I was doused in 3 rounds of alcohol, I would be confident anything was ready for use. I don’t think the alcohol smell would be gone though.

Sure, he's a salesman but I needed a filler to get free shipping too, so I gave this serated cutter a shot.
Edit to add this thing is solid and weighs more than my xikars - nice clean cut on my cigar - heres hoping its a good one!
So what's the verdict after some usage TJ ? Driving and listening to the podcast and he is really talking it up this week. Does it give a clean cut or does it bite the end of ? Inquiring minds want to know

Its really grown on me.
First, I had to relearn to manipulate this style of cutter as I have almost exclusively used xikar-style cutters for years.
Not sure what you mean by bite (sounds negative), but the thing I've come to like about it is that once you line it up and close on the cap - it "bites" in and you don't get that slip over the top or slanted cut (assuming you lined it up right).
Give me a couple days - I've been wanting to do an experiment where I cut a few cigars side by side with each and compare the results.
