I think lining a Tupperware container is going a little overboard. Any chemical adhesive could possibly change the dynamics of the plastic and of course it would ruin the Tupperware, not that that's a big deal. If you want to line your Tupperware, why not just get a few sheets of cedar from the layers between cigars in boxes and lay one on the bottom, fill with cigars and then slide additional sheets on the sides. RH is not a factor, the cedar will do you no good there as the Tupperware will hold RH, and really it's not that big of a deal to have that little bit in there to add aroma. If you wanted to use 1/2" stock to line a Tupperware container with, I think you'd be wasting to much space in your container.

I was thinking about putting thin sheets, at the thickest 1/4" just for aroma. I might just put some on the bottom then wedge some on the sides instead of using glue.

I dis-assembed several cigar boxes and used the panels to line my coolerdor. I used sticky back velcro to attach it to the sides. Home Depot has velcro dots about 3/4 of an inch in diameter, worked great

Did you ever Line your tupperware? I just switched from my coolerdor to a Wine fridge with temp control. I had lined my coolerdor with the panels from several different cool looking boxes. It gave my cooler a personalized look. I just velcroed it to the sides so it doesn't take up too much room. If you would like, I can send them to you. They are already broken down and have the logos and such showing, so it looks pretty cool. Let me know.

When I had my tupperdor, I just put in some of those thin cedar sheets on the bottom and tossed my cigars on top.
