Just got an email. This ships out Wednesday :noon

"I hope you like it and it meets your expectations. All that is missing is “6030” number plate that is being laser engraved. I also may have another little surprise for it, but still working on it. It is definitely one of a kind.

I’ll give you the low down on it. It’s solid Cocobolo, nothing is veneered. The black legs, handle and top panel are walnut that’s been ebonized by using a chemical reaction between tannic acid and a nasty rust mixture of vinegar and rusty nails. The bottom panel is Maple. The aluminum strips are solid ¾” x 1/8” and the blue line is blue epoxy. The legs were inspired by handgun or rifle magazines and have .40 caliber bullets in each of the holes. The finish is 4 coats of shellac and then a coat of paste wax. The inside is all Spanish cedar, with two trays and to movable dividers. I had a heck of a time trying to find hinges and something that would keep the lid up and open, but what I used worked well. It has a great seal on it. The movable dividers flex the cedar just a bit, making the seal even tighter. You’ll see what I mean when you get it".

Very "work" related ;) I'm thinking of putting most of my top quality smokes in there after I season it. I love the look of the .40 shell casings and the .223 rounds :D

Before any "empty humidor" comments are made...this is not in my hands yet and I have plenty of cigars to fill this thing. After seasoning I'll prove it. :r

Re: Custom made humidor
 
Just curious, are you able to keep smokes on the top tray. It seems like the depth between the tray and the lid is shallow, but it could be the picture playing tricks on me.

Oh and the humidor is gorgeous btw! :tu

Don't touch my humi, and don't even think about putting "extras" in it when Aaron ships it or I'll kick yer ass.

He's did a little tweaking to it and it sounds like it's good to go. I'm like a kid on Christmas. I can't sleep and I'm waiting for the mail lady even though I'm not home. :r
