When everything is sealed up you will be good to go. Less time spent on your humi is more time for shopping and posting. I would go with the 65% beads but thats only my.

How did you seal your doors and drawer? I would be interested in doing this. It can't hurt!

How can I buy some of Scott's beads? The link in his signature takes me to a page that says I am not authorized to access!

Here are some pictures and how I sealed it. I am posting this since I got a Couples of PMs.

-First you need to find foam wheater strip 1/8 inche thick more was to much for mine.
-you cut lenghts to do everywhere thats is in contact with the interior parts (IE where the cedar lining of the door touching the cedar lining inside, etc)
-You remove the tape...
-you stick it on the wood and youre done.
-You will need to lock the drawer and doors for a little while to keep some presure on the foam.

It took me about 1/2 hour and and that included the, go to the store to pick it up (the strip). Really easy, here are some pics. PM me if its not clear.

Good luck
