Nice pick up Dan!!!

TomHagen · 12-25-2008, 12:18 AM

That's the coolest thing to come out of a head-shop since college...

what were you doing in a head shop anyway??

(patchouli used to smell good)

I wasn't in a head shop... I found it on Craigslist. Dude told me he closed his store... I got a damned good deal on this.

And, to me, patchouli never smelled good...

Nice cabinet!

Probably alot faster way of ridding the undesirable smell , it's the way I would do it . Nice cabinet too .

Done and done.... thanks for the reminder about the surgical mask. I sanded the entire thing... the full inside, and every tray that came with it. Now there's 4 fridge/freezer boxes of A&H in there and 8 plates with A&H in the drawers. Hopefully when I get back from holiday madness, I'll be able to load it up. Oddly, rh is pretty good in there at the moment.

We have to wait THAT long?

hell yeah, D... I don't want my stash to smell like a head shop. If I did, I'd just save the hassle and go buy a few boxes of acids...

Edit... I have no foam for that moist-n-aire thing... I need to find a way to humidify it. Anyone know of a way to use beads with the moist-n-aire?

GWN · 12-24-2008, 06:34 AM

Great pickup, Dan! Look forward to seeing it stocked.

ucla695 · 12-24-2008, 07:32 AM

Moving on up! Congrats!!

skibumdc · 12-24-2008, 07:55 AM

I vote for a light ultra fine sanding and baking soda.

Mr.Maduro · 12-24-2008, 07:56 AM

Vey nice, but I think its too small!

12-24-2008, 08:07 AM

Congrats Dan!

Looks kinda empty.

Your RH must be way off.

What to do what to do?

Ha, that's exactly what my wife would say....of course it would be with a completely different tone of voice!

Very nice cabinet, enjoy filling it up.

Speaking of rh - maybe it would do to put a couple sponges soaked in distilled water in there (on small plates) while you let it sit and try to get the stink out.

troutbreath · 12-24-2008, 05:51 PM

That is a great looking cabinet! Congratulations on the purchase, and Merry Christmas!

Way to go Dan, it looks great. You can even stare at the stash without opening it.

PS Has your wife seen the picture of you and that woman in your avatar?

That was the point... I can't friggin' wait til it's filled... that moist-n-aire thing got the humidity dead on in about 2 hours.
