    Thanks for the suggestions, guys. I don't think excess air movement or humidity being pumped in will be an issue since I'm using both fridges unplugged. One of them actually has the compressor and everything removed, so it's basically a cooler with a nice door on it. So there won't be any continuous air movement in them at all, aside from opening them to add/take or the oggling of the contents (really, who can keep their eyes/hands off!). I figured they'd get opened a couple times a week just so I know the air is being circulated "manually." Once I get them both ready to roll I'll try to get some pics up for all to critique.

    Just a quick update...I got two pounds of 65% beads in the fridges now with the calibrated hygrometers. I'm gonna wait a few days for it to stabilize in there and hopefully start adding inventory soon. Next on the agenda will be some spanish cedar shelves...

    Some BOTL's on here make shelves, like Cabinetmaker or Waxing Moon, though the cost is typically $20-$30 per shelf. If you wanna do it yourself, just find a local lumber supplier that has kiln-dried spanish cedar; get them to cut it so it's between 1/4 to 1/2 inches thick, then find out if you're handy or not. Here's my attempt: http://www.cigar.com/cs/forums/1/302034/ShowThread.aspx
