What's more manly than Tupperware?
#1
Lots of us have used tupperware or coolers as a first humidor or for overflow. Years ago I had a slight overflow problem and also wanted to be able to keep cigars on my boat. My first idea was this:

A bonified US Army Ammo/Shell case. What's cool is many people are making these in all sorts of synthetic materials today in all sizes.

They are air tight and works great. Just rip appart an old cigar box and line it with the cedar. Add a gage and any sort of humidifier to the top (of course today I would use beads).

I have seen these Ammo boxes at the local flea market a few times.  I now wish I would have picked them up.

Do you guys not have an Army surpluss store there? Those things are everywhere.

We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered.

Isn't gun powder used as a season food in some survival guides, so why can't you season your cigars in it.

What good is ammo if you don't use it? Tongue

Easy don't encourage him. You taunt him from a distance most of the year, I do it weekly in person or within his line of sight.
