Thanks, Gents. After reading responses and second thoughts, I will not re-invent the wheel. 3 1/2 lbs. of beads and mini fans it will be. I will let you know how the humidity shakes out and post pics of the cab w/ cigars and the smoking room sometime next month. We take control of the house earlier than expected- May 1. In the interest of letting my 12 year old finish out school where he is, I will be living in two houses for a month. Again, thanks for the input.
