Re: Cooled Cabinet Humidor Project
Thanks for the interest and feedback. I’ve seen his other pieces and I know he does amazing work but I’ve never seen the construction process. I had no idea how much work was involved in building something like this. I don’t know if seeing the progress makes the waiting easier or harder.
The cooling units are from INB Thermoelectric, but I got the entire humidity and temperature control system from Matt at Avallo Humidors. Since I was starting from scratch and didn’t really know what I was doing I liked the idea of having a complete ‘kit’. I added the lights, a timer for the fans, a float switch for a low water indicator light and a second power supply. You can get the cooling units directly from INB for about $250/unit. |

Re: Cooled Cabinet Humidor Project
I'm going to use 1.5" thick rigid insulation. At first I was worried about the loss of storage space but I would rather have it function properly and lose a little space, especially since it's about 4 times the size I currently need.

Re: Cooled Cabinet Humidor Project
Incredible build!
Where did you purchase the spanish cedar if you don't mind me asking? a specialty wood shop or did you get it off the net? Last edited by Agent11br; 12-18-2008 at 08:06 AM. |

Re: Cooled Cabinet Humidor Project
The frame work for the drawers and the base went on this week.
The timer for the circulation fans came in last week. It's a repeat cycle timer with external potentiometers to adjust the on and off times. The on time is adjustable from 3 sec.-5 min. and the off time from 1-100 minutes. |

Re: Cooled Cabinet Humidor Project
Very nice, I wish I had the skills to do that kind of work. And better yet, I wish I had the finished product in my house!

This looks absolutely stunning! It also looks really well built and very heavy! I cannot wait to see more.
