Re: I Make Humidors
Outstanding. It is always a pleasure to see the work of a true craftsman. I'm jealous because I couldn't build a box fit to ship one of those things in!!!

Re: I Make Humidors
Very nice work. I think I have seen some of your things on the finewoodworking site. Just curious, are those rare earth magnets on the birdseye maple and walnut humi?

Re: I Make Humidors
Thanks again for the compliments......

Yes, I have some of my stuff over on the FWW site..... so, you probably have seen it over there if you visit FWW.

No, those are not magnets, they are brass & turquoise inlay. I thought about magnets, but this lid doesn't need 'em - it's a very nice fit.... It is actually Bolivian Rosewood, not walnut and that stuff weighs a ton! This is a heavy box....

Re: I Make Humidors
I am getting ready to build one myself but you set the bar pretty high. I'll be happy if it just does a good job of storing the cigars. I've built furniture and such but never any inlays. Hats off to you again.

Thank you, Sir! Good luck on your build. If there is anything I can help ya with....feel free to drop me a line.

You may want to check out my website..... it's in my profile somewhere..... I've made pretty comprehensive blogs of the things I've built over the last couple of years....

Any updates?
How's the progress coming on the chess board humidor? I really like your blog and enjoy seeing the work of a true craftsman!

I may also have to take the "V" off your hands...

Re: I Make Humidors
Yanno Ed, everytime I look at your boxes I see yet another sneaky little trick, which sets them apart. I just noticed the handles on your tray. Brilliant idea, which Ive seen nowhere else. Youre obviously a cigar guy who's been frustrated with those stupid routings like the rest of us. I also like the extreme height of your seal and the fact that it's up from the bottom as opposed to down from the top. Nicely done.

Things have slowed down a little bit in the shop...... I have fallen victim to the economy - just haven't had the motivation to work on the chess board. It'll come back to me, but I didn't want to screw it up when my mind is running elsewhere....

"V" is still around.... it's currently at my B&M sitting on their shelf

Re: I Make Humidors
Sorry to hear that.

If I can't convince the wife to allow the "V" in the house, I may see if we can come up a design she will like. Have you worked with Kauri wood before? I'd probably only be able to afford it as a veneer.

Question Re: I Make Humidors
Ed, those are fantastic humidors! I don't have enough posts yet to be able to send PM's, so would you be willing to email me at gsmj27 [at] gmail.com with prices?

Thanks,

Glen

Re: I Make Humidors
Howdy Ed:

I hope you are doing great.

That one with the brass inlays looks great, two shelves probably 150+ cigars.

I have sent you a PM as I am trying to find a new desktop to replace the CI one I got as a newbie earlier this year.

Best regards, tony
