Today is a good day! After almost 5 weeks of curing, adding cigars 100 at a time and bouncing around between 65 and 72! The Humi is full and has been sitting at a rock solid 69 for 5 days now!

But I feel good! Was patient (not my bag) did it the right way and now my stock can start getting some quality age on them!    :dancing:

Ya it is! And with a 6' Humi holding almost 700 it gives you that warm fuzzy knowing it was done the right way, lower chance for problems and that my babies are are in good place  :victory:

Thank you. Was a gift years ago and I seriously love it. Gives you so much room and versatility got everything all set up so that the top 4 drawers don't even get opened for another 6 months and the bottom 4 about 9 months. Shelves are holding all my mild's and stuff I'm smoking within a month or so before they get moved to the desktop!

I can handle it! That's the beauty of cigars no matter how many you have there is always one more you haven't tried!

Very slick, and congratulations on doing something right the first time rather than trying to rush it.  So few people bother to give things enough effort.   :thumbsup:
