As of now I am at the stage where I need Spanish Cedar. I did a bit of looking around and have decided to buy large boards and have a buddy of mine mill them down for me. I will do better that way as the finished boards can get costly and with custom milling I will wind up with the wood I need to line the box and seal it. Then I will have plenty of wood options for building trays.

Very cool, Mark! That will be quite the conversation piece once you're through with it. Plus you'll have the wonderful story of your conversion project to accompany the humidor. Well done. Keep us posted!

That's cool looking. My mom has an old, old one. I wonder if she'd be willing to part with it.
