Sorry, the exterior image was rejected by the review committee, so I censored it and re-issused it to them. We will see what happens and will let you know. Anyone object to the female form as art??? By anymeans, not porn. Scotty

OK, they posted the censored exterior.......I handcrafted this humidor with solid 1/2" Bolivian Rosewood, 1/8" inlay, inner box 3/8" spanish cedar, top is an original model photograhp I shot, inked into maple wood, finish= top @ 7 coats varathane hand rubbed, sides 6 coats hand rubbed tung oil with 24hrs drying time between coats and rubs. All devises are mounted with two natual magnets, one mortised into the lumber and one attached to the units. (No velco) Completion time: 6 weeks. Hope you enjoy, I'm now working on two Asian versions with symbols (one "Good Fortune" and the other "Family") will post when completed.

I wouldn't mind rubing that model with some "tung oil" and I would mount naturally as well...

Very nice, you're an excellent craftsman!

Outstanding! To me this kind of craftsmanship goes beyond "technical" skill; you also have to have an innate talent for it also.

SP,

I would like for you to build me a humidor of this quality for a gift for my son's God Father. Is it possible?

Regards,

B

Robby, what was my plan? I am very humble and just wanted to share my trade others. Scotty

I think what Robby was trying to say, is it does seem like you have given your humi a little 'hard sell' ...

... heck, you posted references to your humidor on every board!

Be careful ... and if DO decide to sell your work here, make sure you keep it to email, so you don't step on CBID's toes, by using their forums to form a customer base ... 😉

Sorry, was not my intentions, it's not for sale in ether case.Just wanted to share with others and posted it on the other forums for those that don't check out the photo forum. I will reframe from doing it again. Scotty

SP --- I wasn't trying to come down on you ... although I'm sure many here will take it as that ... LOL!

I just was tryng to give you a heads up, just in case you weren't aware of it.

... it's just that there have been people who have used these forums in the past to sell their stuff ... and if CBID carries it ... that is not allowed.
