I have had this old Tourniquet case since I was a little kid. I purchased it a ARMY surplus store (I was 10 or 12 years old). I have loved it since I bought it's never really been used for anything. I'm guessing Vietnam war era but don't know for sure.
I will add some spanish cedar for good measure.

:-) Nice.

Do you have a couple sheets of cedar? That would make for a better environment.
[Reply]

That looks cool, but how good is the seal???
[Reply]

Yea I will add some

It's got a rubber seal and is (was) made water and dust proof. I did water test it and only got a couple drops which could have been on the outside.

That is really neat, definitely a badass herf box.
[Reply]

That makes for a sweet herf box!
[Reply]

definitely a cool herf box, I agree that a couple thin sheets of cedar on the top and bottom would be a good idea, not absolutely necessary however. :-)

Sweet!

That is an awesome retro box there. I just use a couple cedar sleeves off of cigars in my traveldor.

I was hankering for a game of cigar tetris and I had some cedar dividers from my desk top so I figured I would see how I could use it in the TOURNIQUETADOR.

This is how it fit with absolutely no modifications.

I fit 38 cigars in it. That's a decent overflow storage until I get the Wineador.

Looks nice and the price was right :-)

Cool idea Jared.
[Reply]

Cool concept brother...looks great :-)
[Reply]

Neat looking box. :-)
I've seen 50 cal ammo boxes converted into a bunch of uses, I've got one I use as a watertight tool kit for the truck. A buddy has one he uses as a humi.
[Reply]

So badass. I approve.
[Reply]

Looks good!
[Reply]

That is bad ass. Period.
You should get some closed cell weatherstripping for around the inside edge of the lid. It'd hold humidity great.
...
Now I think I see an old rubber seal in there? If it's good, erase what I said.
Dood, super cool. I envy you. :-)
[Reply]

Awesome work! Love to see old stuff converted into humidors!

My Fiancee is in the Coast Guard, and she brought home an old .45 Ammo Can. I was thinking about cleaning it, and trying it out. This idea has me pretty interested.
