I would put whatever you are using as a humidifier into the tupperdor with the tray for a few days to let the tray absorb some moisture. Should go faster than a normal humidor as the only thing you need to be seasoned is the tray.

I bought several drymistat tubes before I discovered beads. Get some beads and thank me later :) Although, for a tupperware, the drymistat will probably work okay, but if you're like most of the inmates here, you'll outgrow it fast.

Heartfelt or shilala come highly recommended by many here.

I use these:

Available here: URL for 2.5 Gallon Rubbermaid airtight container from Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000WEMFGQ/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_1?pf_rd_p=486539851&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B00139YNGY&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=1MNKJSJ7DQ1EESJS9SD5)

The containers are airtight and they do not soak up humidification from the Boveda packs at all meaning your Boveda pack will last you well over a year. I took pieces of cedar and lined the bottom of mine. Speaking from over 5 years of experience with em, they work perfectly. Cheap, too! Hope this helps! :tu

What's to build? Container and cigars. If the cigars are properly humidified going in, you will need no humidification.

I've had gladware containers for almost 4 years, full, with no humidification and they stay rock steady 65%.
