So, I have been growing more and more unhappy with looking at a coleman cooler sitting in my living room. A week or so ago my father ad I decided to take on a project to camouflage the cooler into something nicer. and here it is.
We used 3/4" birch plywood for the structure and the moulding is 3/4" x 3/4"
pine quarter round. It will be getting a nice semi clear pecan stain this weekend.

Genious! If I had a penny for every look I got when I tell people I keep my cigars in a cooler I can only imagine the looks when you show people yours! Rolf!

Wow thats pretty awesome looking. All you need to do is line it with some cedar and boom you got yourself one nice lookin man sized humi. No idea what Spanish cedar runs although I imagine its a fancy nickle.
I got a good chuckle out of your "other" humidor. Placing it next to a box of Pardon's is what takes the cake
:-)
Edit: Upon further review I realize that you put them dog rockets IN a Pardon box....oh my.
