One day a co-worker was talking about his vaping supplies. He was sick of having his bottles all over the place and trying to store them in plastic tubs. At one time he also smoked cigars and had a nice humidor and thought it would be nice to have a humidor style box for his vaping supplies. This unit is the culmination of several weeks of working together to bring his idea to life. The box is made of locally sourced cherry with wedge corners and pulls. The pull was shaped by hand with a chisel. The finish is several coats of sprayed on laquer that was wet sanded and buffed to a glossy sheen. The last picture shows the unit partially in use. As always any comments are greatly appreciated.

My guess is your probably on to something there. With the ever growing popularity of vaping I’m sure your friend isn’t the only person looking for something like that. Great work and awesome idea.

Nicely done. As usual! What did you use for the corners and handles? Different wood or staining cherry darker? Nice contrast and beautiful finish too.

Kewl design, i’ve been thinking of doing the same thing since it has become so popular. I don’t vap but i do smoke a stogie once and a while. I agree with mrgoodcat you have yourself something going on for sure.
Hey Mads its what all the cool kids are doing, no more tobacco just flavored sugar water to smoke with nicotine in it. I think its kinda silly but i’m old and not with the in crowd LOL
