Medic45's Chest A Dor

Medic45

I was out pilfering around at a used furniture store and came across this nasty ugly messed up hope chest, and my little brain went nuts. All I could think about was toombes Trunk A Dor, I then said to myself! Self in the right hands this could be an AWESOME Chest A Dor. So I texted Dan and called the fatman to hook me up.. He said it would take some time so ill update it as it comes but for now enjoy....






I am so excited.........lol

Red cedar, aroma too strong! Be careful!

do you plan on lining it with a plastic barrier or something to keep the aromatic cedar separated from the cigars-n-stuff? other than that worry, it looks good!

I sure hope so buddy! Found out today it was made in 1963 roughly and what appears to be a messed up top beside the color is the out side is covered in walnut I believe is what I was told!! So it keeps getting interesting!!!!!
