I think i need a storage room! lol

[afcrewchief]

I just got into cigar smoking and bought a acrylic swingtop canister. I can see im gonna need a bigger humidor soon. Any recommendations for quality without a huge price tag?

Google "Coolidor". Best & cheapest way to store cigars properly.

 

[Jwrussell]

No need to Google, just do a search on here. All the info you could need.

Coolidor is the most bang for the buck around for sure. If you're wanting more of a fine furniture piece, let me know what kind of budget you have in mind and I'll work something up for you if you'd like.

I'm currently working on plans for an end table size cabinet to fit the $300-$400 range for those of us without BIG budget$.

Otherwise, Coleman extreme and a pound or so of beads and you're golden!

I probably will start off with a coolidor then! eventually id love a nice wooden piece! I cant wait to have a large collection! lol I feel like im collecting GI Joes again! lmao

Im still putting the finishing touches on mine. Just need spanish cedar shelves. Just using a thin plywood right now to hold me over.

JNT..post some pics when you get her done! Nothing sexier than a load of Cigars!

Same here brother. Keep an eye out on craigslist. I was able to find a like new Avanti 28 bottle wine cooler for $75 that is going to be converted. Like the others said just find a nice long weekend to pretty much read the whole forum like I did. You'll come out with more knowledge and ideas than you can handle. Hell I found it hard to sleep that night with everything that was going through my head. I started out again a while ago with my old 20 count then got the 125er and now the wineador is in the works. Can't wait to start filling it up when it's done. Good luck and happy smokes!

If you're into cigar porn, haha, check out the "show your humidor" thread.

Ditto on the coolidor. Check out the coolidor primer set up by Headbanger!! I did some calculations and you can set up everything for around 60 bucks for a modest 50qt setup and going 100 or 150 won't kill you either. I'm in the process of gathering the materials now and with a little shopping around can spend less than I did for my desktop. :clap: So if price is an issue it's the only way to go for a good amount of storage space. GO WITH THE BEADS brother!

lol i do..i do...one day i will have my own stash compared to my eight cigars! lol

 

[afcrewchief]

plus being in the military and moving around i need it to be rugged and portable

 

[JNT]

Yea, a igloolidor wont do for you. You need something cool, like a converted ammo box or jet fuselage.

 

[Craig Mac]

You can probably find an 50 count otterbox for well under $100. Good and durable for travel and you can fit more if you take some of the foam trays out.

Otterbox is a good idea. That ammo can is sweet!
