Fasten your seatbelts. Put on your crash helmets. This is how I store my cigars, New Orleans-style.
Yeah, they don't get a lot of TLC and attention. Well, they get attention when I smoke them, which is why even though I have three big humidors, they're mostly full of cigars I don't care about, cigars I'll be happy to never see again.. My humidors are dumping grounds for cigars I've lost interest in. The cigars I do have interest in? They are scattered on my desk and they get smoked. Everything cigar in that picture is ash now. RIP.

I was going to buy a cheapie humidor a few weeks back (just something to hold around 50 sticks) Then I remembered that I work in a shop every day and could build something real easy. So that's the plan.

Snap lock tupperware(Sistema KLIP IT are perfect), lined with cedar spills which you can probably get almost free from cigar shops, and then throw a couple Boveda packs in there. Most stable humidor I've ever had. Tried 3 other humis including a pricier Savoy and a Diamond Crown before figuring out that small humidors just suck. For anything under around 100 sticks, you are better off just keeping them in ziplocks with a Boveda and saving your money for more sticks.Mr Beardsley wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2019 4:50 pm I was going to buy a cheapie humidor a few weeks back (just something to hold around 50 sticks) Then I remembered that I work in a shop every day and could build something real easy.

Interesting! I'm using a tupperdor at the moment but the fancy pants part of me won't allow it to last long. I can build it any size I wanthoutenziel wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2019 10:47 amSnap lock tupperware(Sistema KLIP IT are perfect), lined with cedar spills which you can probably get almost free from cigar shops, and then throw a couple Boveda packs in there.

Appears to be a Staebell . . . I have one similar that is now idled as I have not smoked cigars for near 15 years.
