Custom made humidor

So after Mike (Remo5_0) got a sweet ass humidor made I thought, why not me. I contacted his guy and he has officially started on my project. I'll update this thread with photos as I get them.

Here's the beginning....

Re: Custom made humidor

Is that black walnut, Andrew? It's got lots of character. I like that a lot more than really clear stuff, you can tell it's really wood.

I have a couple of pieces of cocobolo lying around from a woodworking auction, that stuff is heavy and will make one heck of a humidor. What design are you going for Andrew?

Re: Custom made humidor

I have seen the plans for the humi and it will be very very nice!!!

I need to make a build thread for mine :tu

It's a surprise Matt. I won't reveal it until it's in my hands. Only Frank knows...he can be bribed with donuts.

The figuring on that cocobolo looks fantastic. That's a pretty box...and I don't just say that to all the girls.

Re: Custom made humidor

Go ahead and try and fill it...they will just fall out of the bottom...or lack there of.

Re: Custom made humidor

And the top...not polished yet and not laquered yet. The top is walnut and has been ebonized.

It would be nice to have a truly bottomless humidor that also kept RH. One can fantasize..

Re: Custom made humidor

Well obvious my design is no secret now. I wanted a custom humidor with the thin blue line. I'm going to fill it with smokes and every time I open it I'm going to smoke a cigar for a fellow LEO Brother/Sister that has made the ultimate sacrifice. I figured it's a good way to honor the men and women. That and it has a special place in my heart. :tu

It isn't finished just yet. More things have to be added. I can't wait to get it, season it and display it proudly.
