Happy evening all!

Ooof, they are proud of that sucker! (But it is beautiful)

It is interesting though! (Dry stacked, not welded crooked lol)

That was one of the first things that popped into my head. What I'm conflicted on are: The bottom with stem, it has a decent sized dish to it - not flat. Anything set into it would slide down to the middle. Gotta have themed cigar rests - something with style! Nowhere to put drinks, maybe...

It's almost like popping open geodes - never know what you have until you do... Cut up one of the kegs to see what's what. I intentionally cut them a little deep - easier to cut more off than add some back. The bottom one is the guinea pig. Polished up amazing well. Quite beautiful...

It's the simple things, amiright? Happy Saturday everyone.

Per Boveda: The recommendation from our tobacco team is to use our 69% RH. Boveda works at a variety of temperatures, even lower temperatures. Always remember to use (1) size 60 Boveda for every 25 cigars the humidor can hold in TOTAL. Or, use (1) size 320 Boveda for every 125 cigars the...

I dug through the archives and didn't see a conversation on my (possible) issue. The new approx. 3CF wineador currently won't get above 64F, per my calibrated digital temp/HR monitor. I just started a seasoning on it with the white oak shelves, plus the 67% box pieces and SC shelves from the...

No odor other then the typical slightly woody aroma. 99% sure they aren't sealed, slightly raised grain on some of them and the sanding marks are feel-able(?). Waiting for for a couple buddies/woodworkers to provide opinions - they are leaning toward white oak. I'm a low-budget kinda cigar...

Well, it's not a cigar, but it will be my new humidor. My little 8 bottle sized one quit for good and been on the lookout for another. Jumped online tonight and the first thing that popped up was this beauty - $40 - I shit you not! (think the missus will notice the difference?) No...

The kegs are a little short for a chair-side ashtray. Kicking around some thoughts. Still have a steel plate as the top. Not sure about the mix of items though.

My little thermoelectric 6 bottle sized cooler started acting up - can't find the issue. I'm in Arizona (dry), average temp in the house is 75F-80F, and without power I'm stable at 70% / 75F. Someone has a giant 36-bottle 2-door glass front for $25 but is compressor driven. If the above...

This getting old SUCKS! Good news: Down 16lbs since starting on of them medical weight loss programs. Bad news: Managed to rupture a tendon in my foot... 3 weeks ago. Thought I slightly sprained an ankle - MRI now says different. To celebrate - a Factory Smoke Connecticut, coffee, and kicking...

It'd be on the large side - but I love that idea! About 9" around and 6" tall at the most (depends on the actual depth of the dish). For the top I think 16" x 20" or so - that would give nice space for refreshments and the ashtray. (Just FYI - I'm using the rougher looking one for...

I know zip about kegs except how to empty them.

They're SS, and for non-structural - it welds to dissimilar metals very well (although it really likes to warp...). One more xmas gift to square away and I want to start putting something together. Thought about cutting the side out of the keg and put in a couple shelves - like for...

How do you feel about corny keys? About the right height, could be brought to a matte brushed finish possibly, some kind of top, bowl ashtray in the center... Just thinking out loud.

Weekend has begun...

As a Phoenician - I cannot like this (but Cody B - wow, what a time to break out of the slump!)

Boring story - I had a TJ here in lovely Phoenix, AZ. Winter still gets a bit chilly - it was about 30F one morning and I'm blasting down the freeway at 5am heading to work - top down, parka and ski hat pulled up tight. Highway patrol pulls me over for speeding. Officer walks up, looks at me...
