Wise words spoken by a wise man. I'm headed towards step #3.

To answer the silly questions....about 2 years. Yes, they are all full...including the spare shelves next to the cabinet of doom.


Phase 5? Converting part of my basement to a walk-in.

Yes, I have an addiction. Not to the nicotine though.....

Damn. I must be immune to the disease....I still have my 100ct. Stuff on the way to fill it up now.....

Walk in will be badass. I hope you keep a picture diary. I like watching these things coming along.

Nicely done Scott!

Hey, quick ?, you like those perdomo 2's? I see you have a box dedicated to it in your phase 4...I was wondering if they were a great cheap smoke?

Good luck with phase 5, at least Dani is SOTL as well!

I love it Scott! :tu

I think I am skipping steps 3 and 4 and going right to the basement walk in humidor. I talked to the wifey about it and got the approval to do it when we finish the basement this spring!

It is quite a slope is it not?

The Perdomo 2's are pretty decent cheap smoke. I bought two bundles of them a year our so and needed a place to stick them all. They are unbanded so the note helps me remember what they are. That room is kind of a group smoking lounge a few of us put together. I dont really smoke the P2's anymore....too many others to try....I mainly use them....and the 5 Vegas Gold box you see, as my moocher sticks. The mayor in our town is a great guy and I really don't mind giving him a cigar, but after 20 or so "nice" ones with nothing in return but an occasional thanks....he gets the P2's and other bundle sticks.

Eh...save your money. I'll send you a fiver. See if you like em. My personal cheap smoke favorite is the bundles of Gran Habanos 3S...formerly 3 Siglos...you can get on cbid for under $40 on occasion.

I skipped steps 2 and 3, going from 1 to 4 (but my #4 is an endtable unit). It's pretty friggin full already, and I have a couple more boxes headed my way!

funny thing is the purchase of phase 4 was my greatest downfall. I had the big cooler and was pretty happy with it, buth then I saw that cabinet for sale on craigslist for 250 dollars! once I got that, my stuff didn't even come close to filling it, and an empty humidor is a sad humidor. So, the slide became a cliff jump. Wheeeeeeee!

1 to 4 without the intermediate steps in far less than 2 years. A lot of the BOTL here move even quicker down said slope. It certainly is crazy. :tu
