Good job Hoosierguy
But I'm reminded of that movie Stand by me, where the fat kid digs up the whloe yard looking for a jar of change. and never finds it

I am still not convinced. Looks good, looks like it could work. But what is the temperature in the bottom of that hole? You don't have a hygrometer or thermometer in there so how can you be sure your cigars are not still at 80 degrees?

Just put a toxic poison sticker on it and it will get left alone.

The heat is slowly getting pulled out of the tube. I've had a thermometer in the bottom for the past 1.5 hours. Last time I checked it was 68*. I'll run and check it now....

It is now 66* in the bottom and 80 at the surface. I expect it will eventually get to cellar temps of about 57* at the floor of the tube.

Well in that case, congrats!

Just be sure you mark your hole somewhere, I can see the winter dumping 2 feet of snow on that and making you wonder where your cigars are.

Edit: post removed. I just read your post above about the temp in the tube.

Again, the cigars will be kept in air tight cigar caddys with rh beads. The tube is just for the temps. When the weather cools, I'll move them inside.
Winter in the bottom of that pipe will be pretty darn cold!

The tube is about 5' from my house. There is no way that I can loose track of it.

I've been carefully considering how to install a lock without compromising water tightness. i think I have a good solution and will post picture later today or tomorrow.
I'm still waiting for the UPS man to deliver my cigs!

I think a name for this tube storage is needed.

How about "The Cigar Sewer"?

Definitely the most unique cigar storage method I've ever seen.
