Its the old school Oasis but who cares.
I just got finished giving her a rub down with some Distilled Water. That was some dry wood.


I got the whole package for a whopping $100!!!:tu

Bada$$!! Get that bad boy ready to go and fill it up! Make sure the seals are good though; sometimes after sitting post hydration the wood can warp a little.

Congrats!

The Detroit Craigslist never has anything but 25 ct humis for $60 or old beat-up antiques that would never hold any humidity... :(

I'm really jealous, Gary!! :ss

Yup.

It was a lady who was moving and she was downsizing. She bought it at a garage sale and used it as an end table. She kept the Oasis inside the whole time.

It is in emaculate shape. I am in the process of seasoning and so far so good. I thought I might have trouble holding humidity since it has not been humidified for a while but the process is looking promising so far. I'm gonna give it another wipe down tonight.

Quick update:

This thing hold humidity perfectly. I got it seasoned and threw in some loose singles in the drawer and some empty boxes in the bottom and it has been ROCK solid at 66% for over a week now. I have a little tweakin to do with the oasis to get it dialed in to exactly where I want it to be. With Shilalas Beads and the oasis I have no worries ahead of me.

Thats The Connoisseur cigar humidor that I designed and had Quality Importers make. You got a hell of a deal, because whomever originally purchased it paid $380 for the box, and $79 for the oasis, plus at least $50-75 for shipping. So I say, job well done.
