I'm doing the BIG 6 0 this December and the wife said that I should get something nice; soooo, I called Bob Staebell and put in my order.

I decided on an Aristocrat M Plus THC in Walnut.

The humi will look some thing like this:

I added a utility drawer in the top and an extra singles tray; so, the unit will be 38" wide x 52" high x 17" deep. This unit will have two peltier coolers to maintain the right temperature since we don't have a basement or cental air.

I was in Dallas last week on business and was able to make a stop at Bob's shop in Garland. Here are a couple of pics that I took with my phone camera.

Here is the famous Bob Staebell himself in the shop. Bob was nice enough to stay late so that I could get there from West Lake after my meetings and answered all of my inane questions with grace and humor. Truly a gentleman and an artisan/engineer whose passion is the building of the highest quality humidors that will last a life time.

And finally the beginnings of MY humidor:

It is supposed to arrive at the end of December and I'll post a few pics.

Edit:
Obviously Verizon is broken so let's see if we can get Picasa Google to host a few pics!!
 
Louie great to hear! Let me be the first to wish you a Happy Birthday!
 
Congratulations!!!! oh, and happy birthday.
 
Very nice.
Have a good birthday.
Look forward to seeing some pic's when it is full
 
Thanks Anthony. So sorry that I missed that little herf in NYC last week. Looked like a great time!
 
I'm getting errors on the last 5 links you posted -- but congrats on the humidorl, and the upcoming milestone! Post some pics when you get the humidor!
 
Yea Andrew, looks like the Verizon web site is down. I can't even login directly.

Hi Brian, good to hear from you. Saw your smiling puss in the pics from the herf last week.
 
Congratulation on the "significant decimal" birthday and of course, the humidor, friend Lou..!!

If you'd like, you can e-mail me the pics and I'll host them for you, no worries. Can't wait to see 'em...!!

Best Regards - B.B.S.
 
Thanks Tom for your offer to host the pics, but I just opened a Picasa Google account and this seems to work.
 
Happy Birthday Louie!

Why'd you get such a small humi???

Bob makes such great stuff you'll love it for a lifetime. Make sure we get some pic of it once you filled it up!
