"A fine cigar is like a fine woman. They come in all shapes and sizes. Treat them tenderly and lovingly. Caress their skin, admire their beauty, fondle them with reverence. Bring them slowly to your lips, enjoy their flavor, their aroma. Contemplate their essence, their dependability, and forgive them their weaknesses - if there be any. Revel in the rituals, their simplicity and their enduring meanings. Do these things, my son, and the blessings of life shall always be upon you." -Prince Sined Yar Maharg

I've been smoking cigars for years but just started to get serious about them the last 2-3 years. I'd like to build a collection of cigars (I just need to stop smoking them so fast). I came across this site when I was searching how to make a wineador. My wine fridge kicked the bucket last week and I'm going to convert it to a humidor. If anyone has any pointers it would be much appreciated. I look forward to meeting other people with similar interest.

Welcome from MA, too.  I just made a wineador myself and i love it.  There are some good guides on here, but feel free to ask around.  If you're good with a saw and stuff you can make your own shelves and if not, you can buy custom ones if you really want.  Or use the racks you have, buy some cheap spanish cedar trays from cheap humidors or the like, some beads or kitty litter and you're basically set.  Good luck!
Yes, it's a pineapple hat.  No, you can't put your cigar out in it.

Welcome from New Mexico.
I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.

mchammer and sparklepony, where in MA are you guys? I live in Randolph. In May a bunch of MAholes held our first annual herf in Walpole attended by about a dozen other locals who met on the cigarbid.com forums and we are looking for others to join in.
