LFD Ligero in any size but the 300 is my favorite, absolutely a great cigar.

I haven’t made any commissioned humidors yet. Here’s a sample of my boxes

Those are beautiful. If you do one with a tray, make sure you put some holes in it for the air to move around. Are those jewelry boxes?

Really nice work! Read everything you can on building sealed humidors as its not easy. There have been some very talented woodworkers who ventured into humidors only to get right out because their customers complained about their inability to maintain a stable humid environment. One other thing to consider is building cedar drawers for wineadors, to my knowledge, there are only 2 builders in this space both with waiting lists full of customers.

Very much this ^ I think I paid $175 or so for NY drawers (4 drawers and 1 shelf) for my 18ct wineador.. cost more than the damn wine cooler itself lol

First off....great thread idea...our own Deal of the Day thread!!

As for sites I frequent for deals:

CigarBid.com
CigarAuctioneer.com

Both of the sites above have auction / E-Bay style services and allow you to create "watch lists" for cigars you may frequently purchase or are looking to try. I like CigarBid's free-fall deals because you can get some great deals if you are patient and persistent. I picked up 2 5-packs of cigars that would normally go for $60+ brick and mortar or $50ish online and I got both auctions (10 cigars) and shipping for $36!!! Ridiculous.

Thanks. They can be for jewelry, keepsakes, etc. We’ve even sold some as urns, with the tray for personal items, and a glassed frame for a photo.

Thanks. I’ve done a bunch of research on cigar humidification. Spanish cedar is the wood of choice. Cigar boxes are a cedar box within a box, with adequate room for the product and humidifier.

We’ll have to look into wineadors. We’ve had wine rack commissions, like this one.

Yep, you're on the right track. He's right though that there are a lot of humidors with bad seals that are basically useless.

I don't mean to beat a dead horse, but its not as simple as using cedar and building a box inside a box. Read up on a gentleman named Arlin Liss, arguably one of the greatest woodworkers of our time who ventured into cigar humidors. Then do a search for complaints about Arlin Liss humidors.

You must have got in early. I think I paid $250 for 4 drawers and a shelf.

I fully understand that. I gave a simple answer for the masses. I’ve been a woodworker for over 30 years. That’s why I HAVE read up on them, and ask questions of cigar people.
