My xmas present to myself - Cabinet Humidor!
 
Here's what I got myself for Christmas... :D

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_HMTVCL3b49c/SV...0/DSCN7925.JPG

Stay tuned to this thread, once I get it ready, I'll put a pic of it full up.

I got a KILLER deal on it and it came with a moist-n-aire (with no foam). I've never used one of these before, but it would be cool if I could mod it to use beads or something...

The only bad thing is that it's previous residence was at a head shop, so it smells a bit like patchouli (which is a scent I detest). I'm hoping that goes away soon so I can fill it with my smokes. Right now the door is open and there's a fan in there... any tips on making the smell dissipate quicker would be appreciated.

One of the coolest things is that when I showed my wife (prior to buying it) her exact words were, "Oh, nice... that's exactly what I was thinking you should get for your cigars... it looks nice!". I adore that woman.

1) SWEET! Great deal.
2) Need to see it full

To get rid of the smell, try putting some Arm & Hammer in there :tu

Yeah, a couple boxes of baking soda for a few days should work that stink out. :D

Looks better than when you described it to me! I can't wait to see it in the cigar room.

Very nice - I've always liked the way that model looked.

And another vote for baking soda. Stick an open box or two in there for a while.

Baking soda would work. You could also do quick once-over on the inside with some fine sandpaper. That would get the Spanish Cedar scent going again.


*Just remember to wear a surgical mask while sanding.*





Nice cabinet! :D
