I guess all I can say is.... I'm busy! Thankfully!!!

Should have some finishing up soon....

03-01-2011, 11:36 PM

So my wife told me I am getting a Humidor from Ed. I had to send the money in, but I have no idea what the humidor will look like or what will be done for me.

I can not wait to get the shipment and open my custom humidor from WaxingMoon. I now have my first heirloom to pass down to my kids.

Not real sure yet what I'm going to marry this stuff up with, but I'm sure I'll be making humidors with it.... I got a treat from my wood vendor today... I just have to show ya'all....

All of the pieces are old growth.... Richard at Carlton McLendon's Rare Woods & Veneers told me that they have been in his inventory since Carlton was around.... in other words, at least 30 years.

First up.... Muvingui or African Satinwood... This is my personal favorite of the bunch... I can't wait to get this one shined up.... You don't see boards like this anymore.... they get turned in to veneer...

Next up.... Some Eucolyptus.... this board actually came from Austrailia.... and is at least 30 years old. Ought to make an interesting box!

Last but not least... A very nice piece of Macassar Ebony.... again, old growth and has been in his shop for at least 30 years....

I can't wait to start cutting on this stuff!

Those are amazing pieces.

Can't wait to see the finsished products you come up with.

03-04-2011, 08:08 PM

You sure can tell they are old growth. You don't see beautiful wood like that often any more.

WaxingMoon · 03-07-2011, 06:49 PM

Back with a few more.....

Brazilian Cherry & Ebony
18" x 14" x 10"
360 Count.....

I like the tray set up the Brother asked for.... 1" deep full trays, 1-1/2" shorter than the hole they fit in.... so he can slide 'em back & forth just a bit and pull them out easily.... Plenty of room below for some serious storage...

WaxingMoon · 03-07-2011, 06:56 PM

This little humidor sweetheart....
She may be small, but she packs a punch....

Cherry & Walnut
11" x 9" x 6"
85 Count....

N2 GOLD · 03-07-2011, 07:30 PM

Very nice work... Top notch...

Trent0341 · 03-07-2011, 07:32 PM

WaxingMoon · 03-07-2011, 08:40 PM

One more for tonight..... I'll put up a couple more tomorrow....

Red Oak & Walnut (great combination))!!!
16" x 12" x 7"
192 Count....

longknocker · 03-08-2011, 05:36 AM

Beautiful, Ed!

03-08-2011, 06:19 AM

One of the best looking Humidors I've seen!

MurphysLaw · 03-08-2011, 07:09 AM

Amazing work, can't wait to see the footlocker!

WaxingMoon · 03-08-2011, 03:31 PM

Today's Treats..... Starting off with.....

Wenge & Black Palm
17" x 12" x 9"
260 Count

Pictures didn't turn out very well... as I'm not a photographer.... but the grain on this one is outstanding!!! And, that Black Palm is somethin' else...

WaxingMoon · 03-08-2011, 03:38 PM

I'm calling this one.... "Secret Agent Man" .... (there's a reason for that)....

Goncalo Alves & Walnut
18" x 13" x 10"
I didn't measure for actual capacity.... but, using those dims, it would have been a 330 count humidor.... but, my client wanted a "secret compartment" on the bottom.... something to keep currency, passports, and anything else you can think of to put in there....

Top simply lifts off.....

You should include prices, as I am too afraid to ask.

As I heard long ago, if you have to ask, you can't afford it.

My wife order a Humi from him for me.

Take a look at these hand made humis and what work and love goes into this. Also look at you have a custome humi that you can help design. The $ amount does not look so high nor does the question come in. Also look at it as a great piece of furniture that is passed down the family.

I can wait to see my finished product and post pictures.

Always ask so you know what you need to do to get what you want.
