Humidors have one major function: keeping the correct relative humidity consistently. To this end, it must have a good seal. Spanish Cedar is often used as a liner as it can hold and release moisture with minimal warping.

Looks like you'll have two potential issues. One would be a seal to keep in the moisture. The second would be keeping the 70% rH locked up inside of a metal container (i.e. potential for rust).
Otherwise it sounds like a grand idea!
I've seen a few metal lined humidors at antique stores and online from estate sales.
Kinda like these

Never used one myself, so I can't say if it works or doesn't work. But it doesn't seem too uncommon to have a metal lined humidor.
It will always be a battle a day between those who want maximum change and those who want to maintain the status quo.
