Project Information
This is my first attempt at a humidor and fortunately with help from this wonderful site I managed to get it done.
Picture #1 shows it in it's new home beside it's predesessor.
Pictures #2 is the inside. He didn't want trays (yet) but just a pressure fit divider
Picture #3 is a close up of the front void with the plain cedar in place inside. In a moment of total stupidity I put a stain on that same piece of cedar and then realized that the odor would never completely go away and render the humidor just a box.
Picture #4 shows the fix - I used a furniture wax stick and melted and covered just the portion that would show thru the void.
Picture #5 is the hinge ( another first for me ) getting fitted
Picture #6 is the back of the humidor showing the hinge and my signature dowel pins.
Looking at picture #1 again you can see the trim in curly Koa as well as the Koa handle.
Client was pleased and has ordered a second humidor using this walnut
Wish me luck
and
Thanks for looking and especially thanks for the help and info to get this project done.
as always - comments and hints are more than welcome
