... Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Great humidor, nothing equals the richness of solid wood cabinets... Makes me salivate 1
gtejada Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 Lotusguy, I am with you, I would get one if you get him down here.
liger930 Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 That's a beautiful piece. Thank you for sharing the process pics and various tooling involved. 1
cigardude Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 So in 2012 I decided that I need a real humidor. Something that will relieve my boxes from the airtight containers where they have been previously kept. I got an offer from a passionate cabinetmaker located in stuttgart (schwaben-humidor.de). The Humidor is made from solid sapeli mahagoni wood, using real cedar wasnt an option because it can smell real heavy sometimes. My goal was a humidor that is almost airtight with a passive humidification (turned out I don't really need that much humidification since the solid wood is a pretty good buffer) for long term ageing. I placed the humidor in my cellar where the temperature is kind of stable (14-22°C/57-72°F) and so is the humidity, between 65 and 69%. Since its all wood the humidor reacts very well to differences of humidity and acts as a buffer. I added a few things over the time like a fan for air circulation, some LED lights with a switch connected to the door and 2 trays for singles. If you think that is big think again, in 2014 it is full and I need to store in lock&lock boxes again..sight, its able to contain around 150 boxes. enjoy, cheers. Amazing, thank you for sharing! 1
cliff Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 That is Amazing, that is very nicely done! Photos Like that made me make my own humidor (7years ago), so thanks for inspiring people (Like me ;-)
Napa_Smokes Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 Amazing piece of craftsmanship. Would like to have something like that built someday.
peterk814 Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 If you are still looking to sell it, I would be interested.
Jay Hemingway Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Great job. So tempted to take some Wood Shop classes at the local Vocational school just to learn how to build my own humidors. They have night classes and I remember it only costing a few hundred bucks.
cassius Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 That is an amazing cabinet! Impressive work!
skalls Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Well done. I'm always impressed with woodworking craftsmanship.
busdriver Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Outstanding! Inspirational to say the least, you got me thinking.
