Ugly coolerdor problem.... SOLVED!

Wolfgang · 03-23-2009, 08:20 PM

So, I have been growing more and more unhappy with looking at a coleman cooler sitting in my living room. A week or so ago my father ad I decided to take on a project to camouflage the cooler into something nicer. and here it is.

We used 3/4" birch plywood for the structure and the moulding is 3/4" x 3/4"
pine quarter round. It will be getting a nice semi clear pecan stain this weekend.

Thanks for looking

Mark

Looks like a great place to rest some smokes.

Great idea! All the humidity savings of a cooler and all the visual appeal of of a fine humidor. You are the man

Genious! If I had a penny for every look I got when I tell people I keep my cigars in a cooler I can only imagine the looks when you show people yours! Rolf!
