If I don't freeze, they're next to me in good company.
You guys are fancy. Me, I have one 50-count wooden humidor and eight 50-count tupperdors. Running at about 95% capacity right now or ~425 sticks.

(This location is the only one I can find that stays within an 8-degree temp range year-round, no matter inside or outside temps.)
That'll work!...Quote:

Back in the nineties, I "tried" to get into the humidor business. This was before digital cameras were abundant. This is a picture of a picture of the prototype humidor I had built. I need to get back down to Houston and get these as I still have 2 or 3 of them down there. They were approx. 12" x 24" x 48".

Sounds like a non-winnable argument. I hate when I argue with myself. The dumbass just doesn't get where I'm coming from....Quote:

Well now, this is getting ridiculous:

And here's some jars of condiment blending components - cavendish, latakia, etc.;

And because they're in the vicinity, my rolling supplies and implements:

The leaves get a little dried out in the plastic bags, so I always have to rehydrate before rolling or blending/pressing. I should figure out a better way to store them. I could probably put some big tupperdors in the filing cabinet drawers.
Anyway, more than you asked for, but there it is, Bruck's Tobacco Library :)
Though not for cigars I also currently have a coolerdor setup for my pipe tobacco until I can find a nice cabinet to re purpose for it.

That's awesome! Filing cabinets usually aren't that fun. Like a tobacco playground. :)Quote:

What's your estimate on the number of cigars that leaf will turn into? Say in a toro on average.Quote:

Not as many as you'd think, really. I did a calculation the other day and found that I get on the average about 17 or 18 cigars per pound of tobacco. Now mind you, that's a broad average, as there are 3 main categories of leaf - wrapper, binder, and filler - and you use varying quantities of each. Also, rolling produces a lot of scrap, which I don't recycle into cigars.Quote:

So to answer your question, I've only got a few pounds of cigar tobacco on hand, so approx. 50 to 60 cigars could be extruded from current stocks. But for making bricks of flake (4"x4"x0.5-0.75"), I could only guess, but probably on the order of a couple dozen.
...which is why I don't buy a lot of cigars or finished tobacco. Who am I trying to kid? Yes I do :)

Never had thought of that, of course I'm kinda slow anyways. If it works, let it and more power to you. I do have trouble with temps in my house and never have landed a good temp location here in the summer.
I have a cheap 50-count desktop at the office and a 1000-count Aristocrat "Mini" active humidified endtable humi at home.
I have 2 wineadors. 1 for CCs and 1 for NCs. I use kitty litter in both for humidification. 62% for CCs and 64% for NCs. They are in the basement which stays around 68 degrees. I also have a 20 count desktop upstairs to use as a sort of drybox to store my current smokeables in.
I use multiple wooden humidors as well as a coolidor. I plan on building a humidor into my bar one day.
Yeah, that might be argued to be flaw in the polling, since so many of us are "hybrids".Quote:

The Edgestar is outfitted with 6 Waxingmoon drawers, made from SC and Virginia Wormy Chestnut. Nice touch on Ed's side, since he knows I'm a proud Virginian. :D All the drawers are packed, as I said, and I have four boxes of CC laying on top of the top drawer. I use Bovedas in there to save space.
The big wooden humi is a RyJ Limited Edition Contemporary Model 11, which is Mohagany and dark stained quilted maple. It's got three levels with two shelves and holds in the neighborhood of 250 sticks. I run HF beads in that guy.
So you're saying you have room? :poke:Quote:

Never cease to be amazed at how simple successful storage can be :) Amazing I think. Thanks for sharing.
Don't take it on me that you announced to everyone you have an empty coolerQuote:
