Lined coolidor?

Why line the cooler with something not needed? Yeah, it smells ok but it smells the same when the cooler has a few boxes in it.

I'm not sure I wouldnt spend the coin to line a cooler, it's unnecessary unless you really like the smell of cedar.

Not necessary but if you feel the need go for it. Spanish cedar is available from Rockler and Woodcraft at reasonable prices. But also remember that working with SC can be hazardous, especially when sanding.

Sounds like a cool project. For my coolidors, I grabbed some spanish cedar 1x4s from the local craft store for spacers and kept a bunch of cedar sheets and separators out of various boxes. For my singles, I used deep cedar trays. Yours has a lot more cedar, but I preferred the flexibility of my approach.

Be sure to post pics!
