Homemade Travel Humidor
ByNeed to make a homemade travel humidor?
Here is one of the easiest and cheapest to make that will really work.
First, head off to your favorite store and get a “Lock n Lock” type container. These are tupperware like containers, but they have the bonus of having a neoprene gasket, and clamps on the lid that will give you a very airtight seal. Mine cost $4, and holds 10 cigars.
Next up, you will need 1 foam cigar travel humidor tray and 1 – 69% Humidipak. You can get both form www.cigarsolutions.com.
Next step is cutting the foam travel humidor tray to fit your homemade travel humidor. Use a scissor or Exacto knife. I just needed 1 foam cigar tray to make my homemade humidor. Obviously, if you have a larger container, you might need more trays. My travel humidor has 2 foam cigar trays, and each humidor tray holds 5 cigar.
There was a scrap piece of foam leftover, so I used it as a retention bar on the inside of the lid. It worked real well for keeping the cigars from moving around in the travel humidor.
Last step is too put the 69% Humidipak in your new homemade humidor.
If you want to go real high tech, find one of those real this sheets of spanish cedar that you find in some cigar boxes. You can put this sheet under your bottom foam cigar tray. It will give your travel humidor a nice spanish cedar aroma.
as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, so here are some pics.
