Here are the pics of my second humidor build. Again, I got a really tight seal (the lid "floats" shut). Paduak, walnut, flaming maple & spanish cedar. Excalibur II hygrometer (from Amazon.com) and Madeline Crystal Gel Humidifier with Propylene Glycol. Shot up to 70% humidity and stuck right near it within just a few hours.
Danish oil finish (3 coats) and paste wax buffed.
Of course I know all the mistakes, but the new owner is happy and that's what counts!
