Before someone jumps on me, I HAVE searched - and I'm not finding what I'm looking for.

Who has a link that will help me build my first coolerdor??

I'm finally reaching this point, which I've been anticipating/dreading/hoping for/etc.

This should help.

Do an "All Messages" search for...

Coolerdor

Coolador

Coolidor

Colemandor

Igloodor

Tupperdor

Sweaterdor etc.

When in doubt, buy a large igloo cooler, put your cigars in it. Buy some "wet foam" and put the foam in a tupperware container. Punch holes in the top of the tupperware container, and your ready to go.

Instant Coolador.

Yeah, I started search, but there are so many messages, and the search function is a little slow that I got frustrated.

My coolerdor is sitting between 72 and 79 depending on the temperature. A little moist. If I add more PG to the foam, will it regulate it down a bit?

Thanks, guys. Links printed.

Looks like I have a fun little weekend project ahead of me.

Then, I'll just need to fill it full of Swishers.

Remember that old potato chip ad "Bet you can't eat just one".

That's how it is with coolerdors. A year from now bet you have more than one. 🙂

I buy my coolerdors (note: plural) at that big big big store that everybody loves to complain about (except me). 🙂

Hey Ryan, I made my first coolerdor little over a month ago for $30. Got everything I needed (including a digital hygrometer/thermometer) at the Big WMart. Guess what?....it's time to make another one real soon.

Ryan,

You can pick up a 120qt cooler for 38 bucks at wall mart.... then get the climmax beads and get a couple of small tupperware bowls. You can stop by your local and get some empty boxes and put your loose gars in there. buy a 20 dollar or less digital hygrometer and watch it get full. when full, repeat.

Aesthetically cooleridors suck. I used one once. You could put cigars in, calibrate the humnidity with a hygrometer, and basically remove the humidifier and the thing will hold constant humidity for months; they're hermeneutically, I mean hermetically sealed. What's the point of having a humidor if you cant yank humidifiers in and out on weekly basis as an excuse to peep in and sniff your your beloveds.

Congrats. I bid on an all black MC pyramid humidor recently without success. Very unique. One of the nicest pieces of accent furniture/cigar storage devices on the market today. I got a deal on a barrister humidor soon after and hopefully am done with storage. Concentrating on contents now.

Matbe it wasn't a MC. Don't rememnber clearly now. This was a few months back on a (competitive source). It was all black, no windows, with an external mount hygrometer. Had me coveting.

BTW, at Wallyworld, you can buy a 90 qt storage box, a peice of tupperware-clone stuff, and a package of wet oasis foam, and some plastic trays for your singles for $15 more or less. I have six of these, and they work well!
