Busy day in the shop over the last couple of days. I didn't get much done during the working week.... things were kind of nuts at my "real job"... Man, I'd sure like to be able to give it up and do this 100%.... We'll see how things go...

I worked on the lids....and pretty much have them ready to bevel. But, first, I need to get the spline work done... that shouldn't be too bad.

I did the tray work on Bop's humidor #52.... I decided to rework the encasement for the accumonitor.... toying with those "waffle" looking things I made up out of SC.... I kind of like that... Might have to do my trays that way too... not sure yet...

Also, I finally finished up a cabinet insert I am doing for another BOTL…. Just need to get some drawer pulls.. Covered the drawers with Ambrosia Maple

Looking great. What are you going to inlay on 59? More Ziricote? Have you ever thought of stone or copper to place in there?

I'm going to put a 2 way mirror on that one.... smoke color... Should look pretty good, will see the stogies through the top, then the reflection when you open it...

Sorry.... I haven't had time to do the picture thing.... I've been busy with work & all the spare time I have has been making sawdust.... So, I thought I'd show where everything is at the moment... We'll see what the weekend brings.... At least they're starting to look like something....

I did all the spline work, sanded...sanded....and sanded some more... beveled the lids and then cut off the tops. Next up... Mill the mortises for the lid stays. Then, it's spanish cedar time!!!

Things have been a little hectic lately in the Waxing Moon shop.... My day job has really been getting in the way. I'm seriously thinking about giving it up and focusing on the humidors - Full Time. But, as you can guess.... the decision is a bit nerve wracking.... Time will tell.

I haven't even had time to get in to the computer to update the progress... but, I will be having Six humidors coming off the bench over the weekend... and then I get to start up on six more. The upcoming six will be a variety of some very cool wood and designs...

In the mean time.... I finally got Bobmachine's humidor finished and in the mail on Monday... she's on her way to London England..... My girl made me redesign the bottom portion of the accumonitor thing.... she's my lifesaver and best critic... she gives me great ideas. Set me back just a tad.

My first piece to wind up in Europe! How cool is that! Here she is.... snapped the pics the other night, right before she went in to the heavily padded box!

I'm waiting to see that grain jump out when the surface treatment goes on.

I'm figuring a nice oil, then clear-coat....

They are officially humidors.... except for 57 & 53.... 57 is waiting for the engraved lid to come back and 53 will be getting a glass lid. They're oiled up and looking good.... still some tweeking & sanding to do... but, it's all downhill from here... I love "Oil Day"...

Re: Waxing Moon Humidor Thread
 
Beautiful work, as usual! Since you asked, though; I like the tray, but I'd have the slats that are upper most running the long way so that most sticks that are stored there won't run parallel to the slats.

Or, just let the customer pick at the time of ordering. Some people might want the slats running the same direction as the cigars to allow them to be stacked more easily without rolling. :2

Ah, but sticks come in different RGs and the chances of the cigars lining up with the spaces between the slats such that they don't roll would be pretty slim. However, a choice would be ideal. :2
I do like the increased air flow between the tray and the main compartment, though! :tu

Out of curiosity, have you considered building any Cabinet humidors? Or, maybe you already have built some?

Im not currently in the market for a cabinet, but I think if I bought another, I would take that next step.
