say goodbye to the bucket.......

Yes, sadly, "Benny" the bucketidor has been retired (although he might get a second life at my brother-in-law's)


Benny has been replaced by "Calvin" the coolidor.........



(Calvin told me he is calling the Beard very soon...................uh oh!)

Sad to hear this. The bucketidor was one of the rare truly unique ideas that has been hatched on the forums during my time here. I think you should at least keep him as a fallback for overflow cigar orders... is it just me, or do I hear the mournful notes of Taps on the breeze? LOL

Sorry Benny, looks like Calvin is moving up!! Maybe the Brother-In-Law will appreciate it like you have. Def an original idea! I can recall thinking about how to build cedar shelves in a bucket.

Wow Benny will be missed, but at least he didn't cry. He will be filled with great sticks again.

So, Benny the bucket kicked the ... uh, wait a minute. Something's wrong, there. He didn't kick himself, did he? Would it be proper to say Benny the bucket kicked the humidor? Man, I'm confused again....

Am I correct in remembering that Benny there was created because of the need for stealth? If he's being retired, did that need disappear? Or am I just crazy, and thinking of someone else?

Stealth is no longer an issue, nor is it required....my cigar hobby has been accepted without question.
I needed more space, and although I contemplated doing multiple buckets, the "layout" of a cooler allows for easier stick access.
Still may use the bucket for over-flow, and possibly long term storage/aging.
