    yeah, I was looking at the price of the trays (you can buy in bulk) but it's still going to cost me over $300 for 48 of 'em. So the questions now is: Do I divide up the bottom and section it off and just stack cigars and have maybe two or three shelves on top? I'm not sure where to go from here... anybody have any ideas?
    Thanks for looking everybody!

    Have you thought about using a couple drawers at the bottom and then having a couple trays on top? I'd use an extra tube of beads like Jamie suggested.

    Drawers... damn, wish I'd thought of that... well, guess that means back to the drawing board.

    By the way...oops, just figured out who mrtr33 is... now I understand. I apologize for not giving you the proper credit, mrtr33.

    For the price of the trays I would recommend the drawers also. The important part (and difficult part) will be getting the drawers to seal up properly. Best of luck to you, I wanted to do something like this also but my laziness caught up to me and I just bought a cooler.

    Right now, the drawer I've drawn up is 2.25" tall and fits tightly inside the humi. I'm thinking to help with the seal, I'll embed some magnets in the sides (at the front) to keep the drawer tightly closed. As for the top trays, I think I'm going to do two trays, the full width and length of the humi, so 30" wide, 25" deep with dividers to seperate sections. The interior that is not occupied by the drawer is 8" tall, 25" x 30" with 3 dividers at a ten inch gap between them.

    Thanks for all the comments and critiques! Keep 'em coming!

    Go over to Steve's and check his custom humi out; it'll give you some ideas as to what will and won't work.
