Wineador Build

[mjdx88]

Well being locked up has forced me to focus on projects around the house that I never really had time for. One of these said projects is to convert my failed wine fridge to a humi. This has been sitting for at least 2 years now.

I ordered 1/2 lb of heartfelt beads, some spanish cedar planks to be used to cover up the back of the fridge and shelves. Also, I grabbed a spanish cedar tray to throw in as well, I only have about 20 singles at the moment so this is perfect. I’ll be re-using my hygroset hygrometer from my desk top humi. I’m opting not to use a fan as I’ll spread the beads evenly between the top and bottom shelves. I feel like I am missing something on this build but can’t put my finger on it.

Aesthetically, I‘m thinking about using cigar bands with epoxy / resin to cover up the front glass, but I’m not sure I have enough for this task. I’ll see in the next day or so once I have flattened all of my bands.

The goal of this build is to keep it cheap, if it fails I’ll be ordering a cooler. The beads and cedar are of no loss since they could be re-use. Outside of those items I haven’t really invested anything into the build.

Thoughts or suggestions?
