Question for humi makers

Jasonw560 · 04-30-2012, 01:51 PM

Okay, I've decided to delve into woodworking with the help of my FIL, who made some nice pieces we have in the house. He's a perfectionist, and would insist on doing this right.

I have this cabinet (my wife calls it a "jelly cabinet") that I could transform into a small 10-12 box humidor. I'm just concerned it's not deep enough. The dimensions are: 18"W X 46"H X 9"D. Is this deep enough?

It's just in the thinking stages. I have to get SWMBO to sign off on it. I don't know if she wants to donate to the cause.

Thanks in advance.

Take a sample of boxes and put them in the cabinet.
9" seems a bit shallow to me but the proof is in the placing.

I placed my Don Diego Fuerte Toro box in it already. There's some clearance in front. I will probably angle the boxes for this reason.
