This is for another fellow BOTL (Brother of the Leaf) It's made of Shedua, curly Maple, Bloow Wood and Spanish Cedar. It'll hold about 150 cigars. Please enjoy.

Man Bill, I just get more and more jealous everytime I look at your damn nice humidors. And I don't even smoke! Those things are SWEEEEEEETTTTT!!!!!!!!!!! I wanna be a friend... ha! but really, that humidor is very nice and I like the inlay to separate the burl veneer and the trim. That is a floating top yes? and what kind of finish do you use as I want to make a humidor soon as well? Oh, and the shelf inside slides? so it will hold more underneath yes?

Thanks very much. Maybe I should clarify. The people I make these for are clients that pay for them. We become friends through our communications and conversations. I feel the word "Customer" doesn't have any heart to it. We are in contact regularly plus we are members of several cigar forums so we BS`all the time. I really enjoy building them plus I get great cigars for some of the payment on occasion. George Burns put it so eloquently.

"If I'd taken my doctor's advice and quit smoking Cigars when he advised me to, I wouldn't have lived to go to his funeral, I'm living proof that smoking between 10 and 15 cigars a day for 70 years contributes to one's longevity." (George Burns at 94 years old)

Stunning piece of art. My cigars would be proud to reside in such a fine humidor. Now if I could find the time to produce my own.

Great humidor, Bill. I liked the Burns quote too - he smoked and drank every day, and lived to be 100. Must be something to that theory.

I have to ask though, what is Bloow Wood? Is that from the tree that the really good cocane comes from? :p :D

Heheehehe
