This thread inspired me to build my own at the beginning of the summer. I'm pretty proud of how it turned out, and I kept meaning to post pics, but always forgetting. So here they finally are. I hardwired in the Johnson Controls controller and mounted the unit on the back for easy changing...

I did some serious searching too. Not because I think Heartfelt and the others are overpriced, but just because DYI is in my blood. And because I'm too stubborn to believe that the people behind these sites could figure it out and I can't. However I don't believe you'll find an answer here...

Wouldn't that be WWMD? You must be smoking an extra extra fuerte for sure! (Either that or you're scared to mention WMD in America. And I can't blame you for that!)

Never been in there, but I drive that route every day on the way to work. I'd be interested to hear what others have to say on this too.

This might be somewhat location dependent, because my sticks from CI usually ship same day and arrive in two business days. Granted, I'm in Jersey, which isn't far from the warehouse in PA, but according to the site the budget shipping should arrive in 2-7 business days. I agree with you, two...

What if I'm using Fully Synthetic RH? Does that make a difference? And should I recycle my RH when I'm done or just dump it down the storm drain?

I have a variation of this, and I gotta say, I'm a big fan. I think you could run over it with a small truck and still not crush the cigars, and for anyone leading an "active" lifestyle (or just somewhat clumsy like me) it works better than a leather case, plus I believe it hold the humidity...

They don't feel too hard, and the wrappers that are not cello covered still feel oily to the touch. Unfortunately I don't have a lot of experience with being able to tell how dry/wet a stick is by feel yet, so I appreciate the info. RG sent.

They're stable enough to use on their own, however their stability isn't necessarily going to be the problem. I think getting a digital hygro is worth the peace of mind, because if you're like me, you'll probably have a tendency to overhydrate the beads until you get adjusted to the amount...

Sorry, bro, heard that one before. Besides, I'm a newbie, so if they taste like a grocery bag I won't know the difference, right? :ss

I'm not sure if this has been covered before, and if it has, I apologize. I've done searches on rh being too low, and see cigars that had been left out for months and lost their oils, however I don't see anything about cigars left slightly low. I've been working on the wine-ador, however I...

I can't say for sure, but I'd have to guess that Honduran produced sticks are the majority in my wine-ador. Why not support the economy of the poorest country in Central America? If Haiti or Bangladesh had a good cigar scene I'd probably switch to them. And if you believe that I'm enough of...

I received that exact same humi for Christmas (Cuban Crafters, no?). How's your seal? I couldn't seem to get mine seasoned, so I did the light test and found that the left side has a bad seal. It was a gift, so even as cheap as these desktops are, I really don't want to buy another one to...

Yeah, I'm another guilty party. Tonight's "winnings" (or a $131+shipping total loss, depending on how you look at it.) Vibe Corojo by Rocky Patel Corona (5 cigars) at $7.00 Slow-Aged by Perdomo Glorioso (20 cigars) at $25.00 Puros Indios 'Special-Aged' Piramides Maduro (6 cigars) at...

Am I the only one who's a little disappointed when I log on and find that I actually won the crap that I bid on? The problem is, I only expect to win about 50% of the bids, and I bid on several to save on shipping. Then if they all pull through, I'm screwed. Now I see why they call it the...

No worries about the beads, I already hooked him up with a one ounce tube of 65%. As for the hygro, I realize they're bad, but I figure if the beads are maintained properly then a cheapie hygro will be fine for now.

What's funny is the fact that I just bid on this sampler on the devil site (minus the humi). Thanks, any others?

One of my coworkers mentioned today that his tupperware storage isn't working out so well and he's getting some mold. I hooked him up with a tube of beads, which should help, but he mentioned that he needs a desktop humi. Last month I saw several good deals for discount humi's, or humi's free...

I know JR's isn't the most popular place with a lot of people here, but if you're going with the Brevas Royale It's a Boy/Girl for the non-smokers, you can get them for $30 a box instead of $42.75 from Tampa Sweethearts. If you're going with the 8-5-8's I don't have any suggestions. As I...
