Broke Wine Fridge

"Scrape it?"

1. Throw it away.

2. Go buy a 120 quart cooler and some beads.

I have some cigars coming to me in a few weeks(damn cbid), But nothing that would fill or half way fill the cooler up for.

Why couldn't I use the fridge like a cooler until I get to the point of needed bigger?

You can y=use the wine fridge just like you would a cooler for cigars. People actually make fridgadors out of old refrigerators. Most people like to use working wine fridges due to temp control but a regular refrigerator would get too cold so they are used not plugged in.

If you can get the seal working with little expense, go for it. Don't throw too much money at it, since coolers are not that expensive.

That is what I was thinking. I cleaned my garage(to make room for my beer pong table I made, part of the 'man cave' redo) and while I was doing that, I started looking at the wine fridge. I just need a 1/4 inch or so spacer to hold the fridge door up and it seals great.

It was a 12 bottle holder, So should suit me for a few months.. I will keep my eyes open for deals on coolers in the mean time.

I like that you can look into the wine fridge; I think it'd be a nice addition in the man cave.

Are you planning on storing cigars and/or boxes on the racks? Are they removable? I might be tempted to remove the racks, since they're wavy, and put in some Spanish cedar shelves (with holes/slits if necessary for airflow).
