    building a humidor

    Actually it's a miter joint and not a butt joint. Cut your bottom panel to fit tightly - and then cut your side panels (you will need a table saw). Another option for help in mounting would be to stop by an auto parts store and look for some trim mounting tape - it would be pretty thin and...

    Applying Sailor's Wax

    So everytime you open the lid - the beads are white. What do you do then? Do you add distilled water to them? Look at the picture below - the beads when you "charge" them - i.e. add distilled water - should look clear like you see on the right side of the picture. Keep in mind that we are...

    Applying Sailor's Wax

    Can I ask - how long have you had this humi - and what exactly makes you think that it is leaking humidity. Ron

    Hoyo de Monterrey Dark Sumatra

    Have any of you noticed any draw problems related to the cedar wrapper? I have oh maybe ten of these - put five away and five in my "to smoke" humidor. After sitting for a month or two - I had one that seemed a little too "wet" where the cedar was. Same thing with the next one. I then...

    sail maker's wax

    Exactly where are you going to apply this was to? I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure that sailmakers wax is nothing more than beeswax with some tar mixed with it. Ron

    Awkward situation

    I don't do diplomatic relations with assholes. What are they going to give you in exchange for you not smoking on your deck? Cutting the grass only once per week say on Fridays at 11am? I'd tell him to go piss up a rope. Ron

    How do you cut it?

    I use one of three different cutters depending of course on the cigar and what/where I am. At home it's either Xi3 cutter or the Donatus punch. The Donatus is actually two different size punches - you simply turn the screw cap to get whatever size you need - the act of closing it ejects the...

    Cigar boxes

    I ordered a box of Camacho Negro's - and the box they came in is heavier and fits tighter than most small humidors. So yes - as already noted above - some boxes can be used with no real problems. Ron

    Recommendations Needed

    Yeah - that's what I'm looking for - sweet spice. I like the peppers also - just want the other spice for now. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions though - making a list and will try them all eventually - never can have to many :D Ron

    I would love to find them at or near MSRP - guess I don't know the secret just yet. And yeah - 3 to 4 times the cost was a bit overboard, but say the Perfecxion No.2 for example has an MSRP of around $13.50 - but most places I find it at is around $36. Anejo's - I have 4 or 5 of them - never...

    Buying cigars online?

    I buy at least 95% of everything online - never had a problem. Depending on who I use, most of the time even just regular ground shipments get to me the next day - two at the most. I would like to buy more local - but they can't (or don't want to) beat the online prices even with shipping...

    Thermoelectric Wine Cooler-dor

    Yep - I'm guessing at the measurements - but the smaller is probably around 3 cu ft where as that larger one is about 10 cubic feet. Which is more what you will need for two coolidors. Ron

    Heroscape

    Is the problem that you like to play games - or the fact that your a "skins" fan? :whistling: :D :D Ron

    Thermoelectric Wine Cooler-dor

    Well I have never done it - but does not look to hard to do. From the specs it looks like the shelves will just slide out and the thermostat is adjustable. So that takes care of those two items for you. As for interior size - looks like it holds 4 bottles wide and seven tall. You could get a...

    How did you start?

    At the age of 12 I stole a pack of my Dad's Marlboros - that started that bad habit for the next 30 years or so. 4 years later Dad retires from the Navy and we move to Indiana where I learned to grow tobacco. The old farmers would take a leaf right off the plant and wrap it around whatever they...

    Thanks Brandon - I'll look into trying the Ramon and Monte. And you know - I almost put but not "peppery" in the first post :0 :D Wish I could explain myself better - but ever had Captain Morgon Spiced Rum? That's more along the line of what I guess I'm trying to describe. A few weeks...

    Opus X huh - seriously, had one today and didn't taste the spice in it at all. Really I'm looking for something that I can get a box or two and not pay 3 to 4 times over MSRP for. Actually I have had only 3 Opus - the first two were good, not great - expected more I guess - and todays little...

    Recommendations Needed

    Looking for a few recommendations – what I am interested in is something with a taste of spice. Not looking for flavored cigars mind you. Not interested in sweetened caps either. Suggestions in both domestic and ISOM would be great. Any thoughts? Thanks, Ron
