Probably been talked about before but if I take the non-dress cigar boxes I have and break off the panels...then glue/nail/staple them to the inside of a cabinet..will that work for a cheapo DIY cedar cabinet? I guess all I'd have to do is make the cabinet air tight?
Yes? No? Maybe? STFU Bao?

I just realized that someone might jump in and say "You've got cigars that are not cheap..why cheap out on storage" My response would be...."Just like using what I got around the house"

I'm no carpenter, but wouldn't there be an awful lot of uneven seams and crevices for humidity to escape?

I was thinking of lining the inside of a cabinet already made Sir Phatness..not building one just of broken boxes.

Sounds like a big pain in the arse to me, Bao...but hey, once I am off the ice, I am lazy.

Bao sounds like a project worth doing. If all fails then at least you got rid of your extra boxes and time to save for a cabinet. If it works then the money you save on the cabinet you could spend on smokes.
IT ALL WORKS OUT!!!!!!!

That would work just fine. Just make sure it's air tight.

Buy a $39 cooler and use the whole boxes to store in it. Lot less work and lot better humidor for tiny investment.

I can see this turning into a "chinese firedrill". OOOPs, sorry Bao, no offense. :-)

Bao isn't Chinese.

You can build a house out of popsicle sticks.... but it's probably not the best way to do it.

I just save the empties until someone says they need some.

I have thought about doing the same thing to a cabinet that I have, but have put that on the back burner as I cant afford to keep my dwindling vino stash replenished (gotta love school and non-paying internships) let alone start filling up another cabinet
:-) from what I have heard when I researched this before was that you can do that especially if you are planning on storing mainly boxes in there
