Coolidor Question

[QUAZY50]

I have a cooler, I have a minimal amount of cigars at the moment(need to get more after coolidor is finished), and I want to make a coolidor. A friend of mine lined his with spanish cedar and gave me a bunch of spare strips and chunks he didnt use. My question is, after I clean and let it sit in the sun and such to get rid of the plastic smell, is it worth lining with the cedar? or should I just get some old boxes from my local shop and use those? Cardboard or wood boxes? Both?

I then want to get some beads (even though I tried them in my deskto humi and for some reason couldn't get it to work right so ended up using bovida packs).

So thats my question. Just curious on the thoughts of the cedar.
