As promised, pics of the China Cabinet converted Humidor!
Well, here she is! My collection was outgrowing my previous cabinet humidor.
Here's the longshot:
Bottom doors are reserved for Cigar Aficionado mags, ashtrays, solutions, and pipe tobacco.
The drawer has my five-finger bags (for bombs) lighters, fluid, and some Toranos boxes filled of the good pipe tobacco
First floor: Rocky Patel ammo box of Edge Sumatras, assorted boxes
Obviously, I need to some house cleaning...it's looking kinda rugged in there:
Top shelf is where I place the Oasis and some mixed batch - to the left side is a whole tray of my resting Gurkha's
When I get finished doing some cleaning and re-organization I'll take some new pics.
Thanks for looking!

What a great idea. Looks like you have done a great job sealing it up,not to mention the choice smokes that line the shelves now

That looks like a dream! Nice job on the conversion, and a tasty selection of cigars you have in there as well.

I sealed the inside seams with resin and then I lined the opening edges with 1/4 inch weather stripping. I drilled a hole through the side of the cabinet for the oasis power cord and plugged the rest of the hole with Ticky Tack (wall putty). Humidor holds rH and stays relatively cool (depending on the ambient temperature).

What kind of resin did you use?...
weren't you worried about caustic fumes from the resin?
Is there just one (1) Oasis used?

You know, I've been kicking around the idea of getting one of those "attorney bookcases" the ones with the glass doors in front of each shelf, and converting it in a similar manner. I need to cruise the furniture consignment shops. Maybe that will be my summer project, in addition to the baby.

Looks great bro - how long did it take you to get everything finished?
Also - those Edge Sumatra's are pretty good, hugh?!

It was a pretty quick process - I was surprised. Once I aired out and cleaned out the cabinet (which I got at a garage sale for $40....Muwahahahah!) it took about an hour to seal the inside and overnight for the resin to set/dry completely.
Then I purchased some extra spanish cedar planks to line the back wall applied them with hot glue. The weather stripping was pretty straight forward and took about 2-3 hours to ensure an airtight seal.
And yea, out of all the edge's, the sumatra is my fav. Too bad they are discontinued...I guess I struck when the iron was hot!
