    The CI store in Hamberg will have them. I think they sell them for $2.00 each.

    Like the others said, 68/68 is fine.
    Spanish cedar helps to buffer your rH, so it can't hurt but is not necessary.

    If you want chunks of SC, just let me know and I can send you some if you pay shipping. I have quite a few spare blocks sitting around not being used. Also plenty of cigar boxes, etc. Many I used at trays. If you wanna skip shipping and just wait til the Orgy, I can bring you some as well.

    You won't go wrong with adding in empty boxes. Maybe I made it up but I swear I remember seeing on CI, CBID or Famous where they would send you a random assortment of empty boxes for a certain price. I can't seem to find it, maybe someone else here know what I'm talking about.

    My only other suggestion would be to make sure you keep it out of sunlight since it's clear. The sunlight will crank up the temp in the container and not only will you have temp swings but RH swings as well as it heats and cools.

    Cbid does have empty boxes on there from time to time.

    You could also consider cedar trays from someplace like Cheap Humidors if they will fit. Help keep it organized as your collection grows and act as an extra buffer.

    Or you could just buy spanish ceder to either make some yourself / just toss in there from many lumber yards. Home Depot rarely carries that sort of wood. An ebay seller by the name of Gym_Bob_in_maine is also a good source.

    It is really not that much of an issue either way. Adding some spanish cedar will help, but not adding any really won't hurt either.

    I agree with buying shelves from cheaphumidors.com if they will fit in your setup. For between 10 and 20 dollars you can have shelves to organize your stuff and add a humidity buffer also and with slots help with air circulation. I prefer kitty litter for humidity control as it is dirt cheap and has kept my larger wineadors at a solid 64% with little maintenance.

    I have the same style ziploc container, just in a different size I think. The only thing to be concerned about is making sure there isn't to much empty space. When I first got it I didn't have that many sticks and my boveda dried out quicker than they should have. I switched to something smaller until my collection grew. If you don't want to get another container you can just put a ziploc full of air or something in there to take up space.
    I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.
