Well, we were all going to chip in and buy one of Scott's meticulously beautiful humidors for Rickamaven, but I am beginning to think it should go to someone else now.

I've got it! How about a quickie contest? Let's give it to the 21st poster to this thread! Checkbooks out, you people!

LOL @ Slim

I know someone who'd sure appreciate one of those

Geeeezzz, Come on girls, don't fight or you might rip your nylons.

SP, like slim said you got to take one step to the side and then 2 back and then look at what Rick says. Especially since nothing was said about the (just alright)(joking)cause I didn't win it humidor. That is a one of a kind box and any of us would treasure it (even if we quit smoking cigars).

We can all understand the pride that you have in this and all of the other boxes you make. But Geeezz SP you got to thicken up your skin just a tiny bit. Afterall, it is the darkest just before it gets black...69

P.S. please send me your mistakes or rejects. I promise to not post any pictures

Ok, Ok,....I've added some thickness to my skin, I guess I was having a bad day. No harm was ever done. And Rick, I will try and post pictures of the kids by mid-October for you....lol (Rob, still looking for the VAN, will let you know when I find it..lol)

Take care all..
Scott

Scott it will be the one parked out side your house with the "4 little People" screaming. And I WON'T take them back unless you make me a Humi to hold ALL my smokes in, At least 60 boxes.
I tellt hem we only have 4 kids cause I stopped takeing them back to the Hospitial. They say "huh" and then I 'splain ( High school talk) that each time I took one back the Doc gave me another, so after the 4th I learned my lesson 🙂
Ain't they great!.... or as MY Grandpa used to tell me" Your a really great kid........ When your asleep" then he'd crack up lmao ......hey thanks for the flash back in time Scott. Like I said ....We all have them no harm no foul!
Rob

Next Humidor Lottery will be of Cherry Wood...Is that OK with all ???

^ Oh, and RICKAMAVEN, for some reason you did not participate in the last lottery. So if for some reason you don't participate in this one, I will personally pick numbers for you, and if you win, I hope you enjoy. Sorry for all the crap I started....

Scott

Scott, one of these days I will feel like I can afford one of your beautiful humidors. I am looking forward to that day. They look better than those expensive french ones and I'd feel better about buying it. Glad you came around on this issue, bro. We're all rooting for you.

Cherry is some mighty fine wood (Beautiful all it's own nature!!!!!)

Rick, just awhile back SP posted a Pic of his family... course you were deep on the meds around that time and you forget how to use the search button (unless bush is involved in it) so I guess someone will have to bounce the pic back up for your viewing LMAO!!!!!!

Keep up the Great Work SP!!!!!

Pricing custom work: (Taken From one of my woodworking journals) I am not new to woodworking, but I am new to selling my custom work and I think I'm suffering from "Mr. NiceGuy syndrome" I sold a mission style table that took nearly thirty hrs to build including finishing for $350. Some local woodwrkr friends have told me I was stupid to do and that the table was worth more like $800. What do you guys think and what is "going-rate" for labor on custom work?....

Personally from my (Hogs) point of view; there is no price tag on a keepsake.. and to me SP's Lottery Humidor's would fall in that Catagory of Keepsakes....
