Great set up Russell. If my eyes are not cheating me it says 80 degrees you might want to keep it somewhere where the temp is lower than that.

Thanks for the advice dan I will try moving it
Here is my set up. I have no basement so to get the coolest possible temp I set it on the floor where air is always colder.
Here is the Humi its a 300 count nothing fancy but effecient got it on Ebay for $60 delivered
This is the lid open - top drawer
Top drawer removed - next level
2 lower drawers pull out
Does having different flavor cigars placed together in a smaller humidor change the flavor of other cigars in the same box? I just bought a small one today and i see it has a divider and i am sure it is not very effective in separating smells. How does putting a variety of cigars in the same box keep the taste and smell separated?
they will absorb a hint of the other flavors but its barley noticeable when your talking flavored/infused cigars.
i have noticed a slight spiced hint that comes from the ambrosia cigars transferring to the javas i had next to them but the java seams to not transfer to the ambrosia ones.
Segregate, segregate, segregate...if there are ANY cigars in your collection that are described as "infused" or "flavored," do NOT put them in the humidor with your other cigars. You will soon have a bunch of cigars that used to be good.
As far as seperating your flavored cigars, your guess is as good as mine.

How do the sticks in the drawers work out? I have the same one that I got as a gift and I use the drawers for non cigar items but have been thinking about changing that. When I look at the drawers tho, they aren't sealed very well and was wondering how they hold up for you.
Thanks.

Poor man's refrigidor part 1:
This is a $58 B & D Thermoelectric refrigerator available at Wally World.
Two Peltier units - one high, one low...very cool. Seriously, I needed a JC manual thermostat to bring it above 55 degrees.
Had to remove the plastic projection on the door.
Specs:
Interior dimensions (useable space) 13.5"W X 11.5"D X 16.5"H
Exterior " 17"W X 19"D X 20"H
Poor man's refrigidor part 2:
Total investment with shelves, JC thermostat, and beads, about $150
After it cools off some this fall, I will finish it by lining the rest of it with Honduran Luan.
Will hold approx 200 sticks, more with some custom built trays.
Hannibal just picked this one up for me. I hope to get it going and stocked soon. My Large one is on back order so.... I havent seen one like this yet.
Now that is cool dr.dirty
I have never seen one like it before.
