    Arlin is not a "hobby" craftsman - WaxingMoon is.

    Arlin is a professional humdidor builder - WaxingMoon is not.

    So I have to say - if I'm going to "invest" $1,200 in a humidor, I'm going to be looking for folks like Arlin to guide me. That makes perfect sense to me - not sure why it's not making perfect sense to others.

    But - Picasso's do sell for big bucks, even though it's just sometimes pencil scribblings on a piece of paper! I'm thinking if swif hangs on to that humidor for about 100 years or so - and keeps it in decent shape - there will likely be a payout. I watch that Antiques Roadshow on PBS and am often stunned by the money "folk art" gets. It is, after all, a "hand crafted" humidor, so I have to think some "expert" will call it "art" and/or "skilled" craftsmanship (even though it's not perfect) and give a very signficant "auction estimate" at that time.

    To increase the value, perhaps we bring Daisy out of retirement and have her go to work painting a cock on the lid! That's sure to make the humidor more valuable!
