Hey guys, Finally finishing up a long journey with my sleeve tattoo, so that means more money for cigars!!! I am currently working with a small tupperdor big enough for a few empty boxes in which I store singles. I want to upgrade as my funds will be allocated to my other vice I am torn between wanting a nice solution like a wineador and cost friendly solution like a coolerdor. My main concerns with the windeador is that I have heard horror stories of condensation ruining thousands of dollars worth of stock. Also, I don't want to spend $250 on a wineador and run out of space. Plus extra money for nice cedar shelves and such.. The issue with a coolerdor basically comes down to cosmetics and limited access to stock. To access a box on the bottom I would have to remove a lot of boxes to get to it.. Please, if anyone has advice, comments, experience.. anything to help me decide!!! Thanks, Collin

I am planning to build my first coolerdor, as my small tupperdor has recently run out of room, and was looking for some advice. Also am trying to avoid a wineador for cost reasons. I was planning on getting a big 120qt. or possibly bigger cooler. I was planning on using Heartfelt Beads %65, and was wondering how much I would need. 1pound, 1.5pounds? Also I was going to use a remote hygrometer so I can tell the rH and temp without the need to constantly open it to check. Most likely either of the following: https://www.xikar.co...p-hygro-system/ http://www.ambientwe...mws07x2kit.html And lastly, I wanted to know your opinions on fans and air circulation. Are fans necessary? I know a lot of people use the Oust fans, but are out of production. I would like to avoid wires hanging out of the coolerdor if I do use a fan. I was going to use it upright with shelves. ( I feel that this setup allows for a more even air circulation around each box, and easier to sort through when digging around for a smoke) Please, If you have any advice, suggestions, changes to the setup.. all comments are welcome!! Thank you, Collin
