DO EEEET!! This is why I need a bigger humidor. Mine is full but I want many more : (

madurofan

My humidor is full. My travel humidor is full. All the plastic bags from ccom are full. Half of my wife's tupperware is full. Its a problem. I need a cabinet.

this is why i have a budget. It has nothing to do with my wife. It has everything to do with how many cigars i can physically smoke in a month. in the warm months i top out at about 4 a week. in the winter... lets not talk about that now. its 70 here and i am smoking a camacho 1962 torp. tomorrow will be another cigar.

madurofan

LOL kuzi maybe this budget thing isn't a bad idea. My problem has always been that I treat budgets like rules ... they're made to be broken. You know kuz ever winter I swear I'm going to build a screened in porch with one of those fans that has the heater element then every spring I think, neh its a waste of money.

Madurofan, you said that your humidor is full and that was a problem. Thats a problem we all would like to have. Lets all help with this problem...Party at Maduros !!!

madurofan

LOL I'd love to have a cigar party! Its not a problem, the only problem is I can't stop buying cigars lol. Kaspera you live outside of chicago? I'm supposed to go to a class some where outside of Chicago here soon. Maybe I'll have to share some of my wealth if I end up out there, haha.

Just wanted to let everyone know I solved my cigar storage problem, well temporarily anyways. I built a tupperdor today. Bought a cake size tupperware about 18" x 10", a Xikar adjustable digital hygrometer and got a couple old cigar boxes broke them up and laid a nice cedar floor and walls. I stuck my cigar oasis in it to get it nice and seasoned. I think it should hold at least 150 smokes. If it works nicely I think I'll permanently fix all that cedar inside and use this for long term storage.

You gotta take some pics when you get done. I haven't progressed to buying boxes yet but I'm sure its coming and a coolerdor will be the next step. Why does cigar smoking lead to carpentry? lol

madurofan

I hear ya. Well if you get a hankering to do any additional carpentry I'm about to do the roof on my house

I'm with you Kuz but by the time you buy all the cedar, hinges and all its not a whole lot mre expensive to just buy one. I will be buying a cabinet here in not too long just not in right now so I needed the temp storage and the tupperdor seemed like a cheap quick answer. Whole thing cost me $9. $35 including digi Xikar hygrometer.

kuzi16

if i was gunna build a cabanet i would start with a garage sale used one and convert it. this would cut out some of the cost and a ton of labour.

kaspera79

Necessity is the mother of invention. Looks like you are set for another week. That tupperware is cheap and works great. I sometimes store open boxes of cigars in them until there are just a few sticks left .A few times I have resorted to double bagged. in Zip-locks (( the huge freezer size for food) .

gott, Thats what I was thinking when I shot that up. Kuzi thats a damn good idea about the cabinet. I might start bouncing some ideas of you on doing just that. What kind of cabinet you thinking?
