Was this the JDN Celebration? I love the JDN Antano Consul, but only after a full meal and plenty of spring water on hand. A toro would blow my head off, but I'd give it a try anyway. These are truly great cigars and smoke them sparingly cuz' the prices are going nuts lately. Especially on the...

Che, the facist-comi mass murderer is a fashion statement with the 20-somethings and a poster of him is featured promently at Obama headquarters in Houston Texas I believe. Try YouTube under "Video Portrait of Barack Obama" if you want your BP to rise. Elie Blues are nice humies, but there are...

I hate the idea of using Velcro anywhere near moisture. If you want to stick to the overhead thing, peel that cheap Chinese hook and loop off, find some good magnets and little squares of galvanized steel and 3m double stick sponge tape. Thats what Madelaine uses and these don't budge. Rasamos's...

Anything Miles Davis, Coltrane, Hancock, Jarrett and once in awhile Hendrix's "Band of Gypsies". Otherwise, out on my porch listening to the desert in the AM.

Found some nice tan weather stripping at Home Depot and put a few condiment dishes of dist H2o last week. Got a Madelaine 250 for the roof and took the old gels off line. Currently holding at 80% RH with no stogies of course. I'm removing the H2o tomorrow and letting it drop to 70% before...

I was hoping to try to avoid re-seasoning but the "exterior" edge of the cedar seal is a bit dry. Like I said, 10% rh outside, AC on even drier makes it tough on raw wood. When I first set this humi up I used Boveda seasoning packs + one extra and produced 80%rh for setup. This was in the...

The masking tape idea sounds intriguing and cheap. I'd probably apply it to the cedar sealing edges or to the varnished inside mating surface of the lid. To be really anal, I think I'm going pick up some low-density weather seal tape slightly thicker than the suspect gap in question. The foam is...

Just did the flash light test and coundn't see a dang thing. This humi holds about 75 sticks and features no glass. I use a digital RH meter and compared it to another digital meter from another manufacture and they are both spot on. The box is configured with the cedar ling rising into the lid...

I've got one of these Perfecto cutters and really like it. Got mine off the bay. I've see this model for 9.99 + 2.60 ship. Heavy in the hand, fit and finish are fine. Great for torps and robbies and coronas. I fact I'm think of getting another fora spare location.:tu:tu:tu

I've seen quite a few threads dicussing how to determine if your humi is leaking, but can't find any on how to fix a "leak". I've got one good display humi, a Tampa Humidor Amalmfi and it's hard keeping it at 55%rh lately. It's chuck full of cigars and humistats and a jar of gel and the humi was...
