So I finally got my new (used) cabinet humi set up. I emptied one of my coolers and put them inside the empty boxes as rh has been around 65 for a week. I have 8 or so lbs of beads and gotta get a fan.
Only down fall is this thing is huge and heavy....terrible to move. -
Walt, awesome setup! Quick question. What's the cigar that's in the middle shelves pic on the top shelf by the casa magna?WaltBasil:Current stock...
Top Shelf
3 Middle shelves
Bottom shelf
Had to modify the air circulation from initial setup. Originally had the humidifier on the far left, with two 12v fans part way up. They ended up not being enough to move the air around. I picked up a mini tower fan from Lowes and have it laying on its side pointing up directly behind the humidifier. Also, moved the humidifier over to the right side. Now it uses less cigar juice and maintains a more constant humidity level. The humidifier is actually set to 79% I've got 3 hygrometers to monitor: 1st shelf up on the right side (at 65%), middle height on the left side (66%) and top right (65%).
I have had it set up higher at about 69-70% but I found I prefer 65%. -
nice! I suggest the small tower fan from Lowes. If you have the space, and don't mind seeing it. About $20. Also, the small 4-6 inch fans on a leg stand from kmart or Walmart.Darktower007:So I finally got my new (used) cabinet humi set up.

I'm hoping I can get some lights like yours Walt and space I have since most of my cigars are still in desktop humidors I can't let go. I was gonna buy an oasis magna or something like that but if beads work I'll save the money! Awesome cabinet btw!WaltBasil:

Very nice. I'm curious about the round holes in the back of the cabinet. I'm guessing there's a bit of a hollow space behind that back panel. And would that hollow space act as duct work to circulate the air from the bottom of the cabinet through those holes?Darktower007:So I finally got my new (used) cabinet humi set up.

Yes. The bottom of the humi on the right side is ment to place a humi device. Inside a fan that pulls air up and through the humi evenly. The fan is old and loud..so I'm gonna try to replace it with a pc fan with high cfm, and a timer.I'll have to experiment. The beads work fine for now but they take up a lot of room one day I can replace with cigars.:)Bob Luken:

Sounds like all you would need to do is get the fan working like you need it to and then you can keep the same amount of KL down in the bottom cabinet and everything ought to be right. Keep us posted.Darktower007:

That is great! How did you make your trays/handles? -
Very nice clean set up.

Ben, I ordered the drawers from Forest at winedors.com. Takes a while to get done. Don't know if I would go through them or not to get done again. Part of it was my fault changing the order in the middle and a few things got messed up. The drawers came in and I finished them. Have been letting them sir for about 4 weeks to let fully Cure and get the smell out. I worked with a local company I do work with to have the handles made. They cut them out with a waterjet.
