Re: Cooler Questions
A good wooden humidor does not allow enough are through the wood to be noticeable. What the wood in a wood humidor does is provide a source of moisture (RH), and "seasoning" for your cigars. When you consider the densities of the wood and any finish (varnish, lacquer) on the outside there is no air flow -- except from opening and closing.
If you scan the forums -- those people with coolidors that live in climates with temperature and/or RH swings have their coolidors sealed.
Look, you don't have to seal it, but if you don't seal it and you live in an area with temp and/or RH swings, then you will not be able to maintain a steady RH in your coolidor.
