Great looking humidor. The Lacewood and Ebony go together very nice. Excellent craftsmanship!!!

-- Dennis Zongker

Wow that sure is a small cigar collection ;-)

The humidor is beautiful!! Very nicely designed and executed.

Building humidors is what got me into woodworking but the funny thing is, I have never built one. Cigars was a big hobby of mine a while back and I always loved the idea of woodworking. I had some very basic tools and thought I could build nice boxes but I came to realize better bigger tools would be required. The years have gone by and now I have a very respectable shop but still … no humidors. I need to re-find my passion.

Blake, An absolutely beautiful execution. I love the grain of the lacewood with the ebony splines. The routed tray is fantastic. High quality. Your boss must be thrilled. Man this is sharp looking!

Great attention to detail. Good craftsmanship. You have inspired me to attack this for my brother.

Beautiful, very nice job on those tiny splines, fit and finish looks professional, but then so is everything you’ve posted. Smok’em if you got’em.

I wanted those hinges for my birdseye pine box, but they wanted almost $30. I had to steal a cheaper set because the guys was watching me… Just kidding, Home Depot, polished brass, $4. That fit my budget

Where does the moisture come from in the humidor? I was never really sure about that one…

Very nice Blake. Fantastic workmanship. I really like working with Spanish Cedar. How did you like it?

Great looking wood, where do you get the lacewood? Very nice design and workmanship.

-- Bob A in NJ

The tray was made with a simple template and “tray” cutting router bit with a bearing. The Lacewood is available at my local lumberyard.

I don’t know if it is the lighting you have or just your technique, but I can’t get my lacewood/BLO combo to look anywhere close to as nice as what you’ve got there. Nice work.

What does it look like?

Blake beautiful Humidor. I like the lacewood. Very similar to my Leopardwood. That tray gives me an idea. I might have to add something similar to my humidor. Nice work!
