the cabinet is gorgeous, but i just noticed your tools are all hung and there doesn't seem to be any crap laying on top of the workbench.. what are you, one of those neatnicks? i'll bet the ends of your cigars are dry when you smoke them.

Neatnick? Not even close. I do clean up after I finish a project and that is when I took these photos. I am organized and my cigars are wet. Hell, I once ate dinner without washing my hands!

First, congrats on the beautiful job!
These pictures are many things at once;
1. beautiful (the work on the armoire)
2. frightening, more frightening and impressive (the organization of your tools, the cleanliness of your work area and the clutter-free workbench.)
If you weren't an Eagles fan, I'd swear you were a freak! ;)

MAN what a good-looking cabinet! LMAO at calavera! And maybe the mouse turds aren't visible because they're tucked away under proper humidification. Uh-oh, we may have a new cigar term here -- with the popularity of small ring-gauge cigars lately, the bad ones we'll call mouse rockets.

Bud, what does the sliding shelf do? And will you use the bottom drawer?

I have an old crank up phonograph! Something like 1916 date on the inside of this thing and it will make a great looking Amoire/cigar humidor! I can't wait to get this little project underway after seeing this masterpiece. Charlie

The sliding shelf is for singles. I've made another shelf(stationary) that sits under it. So far the drawer at the bottom has been a place to keep magazines, distilled water and a few cheap plastic travel humidifiers.

Look you Mel Gibson wanna be...LOL! you should know how screwed up us Eagles fans have gotten over the years of abuse. Give me a break! My modest 10x10 corner of the basement photographs well, it's not that great. Still LMFAO at "freak", made my day!

I've got this antique coffin that I found in my backyard. It's really muddy and it smells funny. The finish has deteriorated, but I believe it's all mahogany. I want to convert it into a cabinet for my cigars... any suggestions bud?

The floor and counter behind the Humidor are so damn clean, that I would be embarrased to have Bud see my work area, hell my house for that matter! Charlie
