Building a humidor

Well, i didn't get the chance to learn it from my grandfather before he passed. Military brat and all. So, i asked my father-in-law to teach me somethings.

Well, for my first project we decided to make me a new humidor for my cigars (as the one i have is completely full now).

started out as rough wood

it is now in the mockup stage with a few more pieces that need to be cut

Re: Building a humidor

That looks great. I have one question for you as I am thinking about a winter project as well. When you made your corner joints did you use a tablesaw or a router. I only have a tablesaw and was wondering how easy it would be to cut thouse squares with the board on end way up in the air.

Thanks
