Moving on up! Congrats!!

skibumdc · 12-24-2008, 06:55 AM

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

Mr.Maduro · 12-24-2008, 06:56 AM

Vey nice, but I think its too small!

Rockestone · 12-24-2008, 06:59 AM

Nice. What a beautiful Humidor.

Have a Merry Christmas!!

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.

Nice cabinet!

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

Nice cabinet!

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.

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?

12-24-2008, 01:28 PM

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.

I don't know.... he never gave it to me.

Oh well, I can prolly get it anywhere (and my buddy's mom works at a greenhouse), or I could find a way to use beads in it. I should check w/ shilala...

There's no foam in a moist-n-aire.
You just put distilled water in it, cheif.

I tear all that doofy mold foam out of all my hydras and replace it with plain old water.
It works great cause I can rinse out the cartridge every time I mess with the hydras.

Congrats on the cabinet Dan! Looking forward to the after pictures.
