Help Convert Closet to (small) Walk In Humidor

[SoCal gunner]

I've all but stopped being worried about mold, green board, and vapor barriers. I"ve applied a primer/sealer w/mildew inhibitor on all the walls.

I've called every place within a couple hours of me - even posted on carpenter forums - and nobody in SoCal has Spanish Cedar Ply. Many have or can order board feet.

The good news is, I've found a couple one stop vendors who are working up package prices for me.

The door is the other pain in the ass: Too small an opening for a slider (they make 'em, but just too narrow for my taste). Exterior French doors will seal tight, but cost a load of dough and require a threshold at the bottom. I'm leaning towards an interior set of French doors with some weather stripping.

I asked a place to quote me on a cabinet to just slide into the closet and it as $8K w/o any options :faint: It was really nice though!

All but set on paneling with shelves against back wall only and putting humidifier to one side.

The door continues to be THE pain! This isnt a traditional doorway rough opening, because it was dry walled in. I'll most likely have to cut the drywall back and special order a prehung door to the opening.

Spanish Cedar paneling and shelves ordered.

Snapping some along the way! Not much to see yet.

So "walk in" may be over stated after talking to door guy - when talking options, he said "so you want to be able to close the door behind a fat lady"

Ok, so I'm working on a "step in" humidor". Fat lady optional.

After being a month overdue, I have a delivery appointment for the cedar. This was after endless calls to the freight company and Cedar supplier. The supplier is a cool guy and a victim of the freight company as much as I am, but in the end he chose them. So I finally told him I was going to call my CC company and file a claim. He understood and said he was about to file a loss claim with the freight company and had reached out to his broker several times.

As relieved as I am, this is 2020 and I'm fully expecting the crate to looked like they dragged across the country- wish me luck.

Interesting that you now may be getting your wood right after @Tombstone posted that ad
