Where's Waldo!

This humidor is for Ranger_B... winner of the "Support the Troop" raffle.... he wanted a cigar band lid...and sent me the bands.... took a few hours this morning and pieced 'em together....

Oh yeah, I cleaned that smudge off my camera lens that is evident in the top right of the pics.... lol

You've been a busy man!

WaxingMoon · 06-21-2011, 02:53 PM

Did a lot of wood cutting in the shop today.... and took a little break and had fun making these little videos....

Humidor

Seal Test

Probably jumped the gun a bit... cuz she isn't quite finished... but, what the hell, I had fun doing it....

WaxingMoon · 06-22-2011, 02:11 PM

Some of this wood grain....just gets ya dizzy.....
...how 'bout it Randy!

Ranger_B · 06-22-2011, 02:17 PM

Man it looks like the grand canyon from 40000ft. Crazy patterns in there.

alexa071 · 06-22-2011, 02:33 PM

I LOVE IT! If you only knew how much time I've already spent finding different things in that pattern you'd probably stage an intervention. Some main sights from a pow-wow with coworkers have been: two different versions of a viking warrior (i'm from Minnesota), a Dragonfish and a devil-monkey. Anyone have anything else?!

Thanks for the update Ed... I love watching this thing as it progresses. It looks awesome!

I know I had posted some pics of this along the way... but, I just finished her up today and thought I would post the final pics.....

Bird's Eye Maple & Macassar Ebony
30" x 14" x 9" (more like 12" counting legs & drawer)
540 Count
Two way mirror/cigar band lid
Hidden Drawer - sort of disappears in to the front molding....

The BOTL that owns this humidor told me a very touching story that involved his father..... so, it was decided to name this humidor... "My Father"

Enjoy.....

Ranger_B · 06-23-2011, 04:39 PM

Ed that is a true thing of beauty. I am sure you did the story justice with this hum!

OldDirty · 06-23-2011, 06:28 PM

Wow just wow that humidor is stunning!

06-23-2011, 10:40 PM

Ed, my first official post on this forum. My friend, you are one of the most talented people I have ever met. You took my ideas and made them a reality. This humidor definitely has a story both from my end and yours.

Now get that thing shipped over!! Thanks again my friend!!

Must have gone on birthday vacation. Not much haps on the ole workbench?

longknocker · 07-12-2011, 03:18 PM

Gorgeous Humi, Ed!

WaxingMoon · 07-17-2011, 11:29 AM

Sorry folks.... I've been grinding away in the shop.... getting caught up on a bunch of things.... I had cut my thumb on the table saw a little while back and it put me behind a bit....

That, coupled with 100 degree - 95% humidity..... I just haven't taken many pictures and stuff....

It's all good... moving along - should be back to normal soon.....

Ranger_B · 07-17-2011, 12:27 PM

Hope your thumb is healing up ok Ed. Can not wait to see some more of your work posted up.

07-18-2011, 12:33 AM

Wow. I almost wish I hadn't given up cigars for pipes after seeing this post. Can you make a smoker's cabinet with pipe rests? Who am I kidding... of course you can!
Beautiful work. The lacewood and ebony combination blew me away!

WaxingMoon · 07-20-2011, 07:19 AM

Here's another fresh off the bench....
Bird's Eye Maple & Walnut....
16" x 12" x 7"
190 Count....

Tried a little something different with the lid on this one.... I think I like it!

This little piece of "Americana" will soon be sitting in it's new home in Singapore... The BOTL that owns it, happens to be on vacation in the US and plans on stopping by the shop TODAY to pick it up!

WaxingMoon · 07-20-2011, 07:21 AM

I had to put the grey matter to work to make sure the bottom was how Randy wanted it.... But, I think I got it!
