I was planning to build a coolidor today. I have my beads and hygrometer.
I was sitting in my office thinking about it instead of working and had an idea. When my late grandfather was in the army he built himself a pipe stand with a cabinet. It is about 3 1/2 feet tall by 2 wide and 2 deep. It is made out of wood and finished with lacquer. My mom currently has it, I would like to convince her to donate it to me to turn into a humidor cabinet.
I was wondering how to line it with spanish cedar...do I need any specific glue or should I use nails? I prefer glue as not to damage the existing cabinet by splitting the wood or anything. As far as sealing the door, I would imagine some weather stripping would work. Let me know what you guys think. If I can get the cabinet I will of course post some pics.
I guess instead of buying a $50 cooler, for now I will settle for some cheap tupperware.
