| 2009-03-27 | Miles | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | If you read these... Theres empty space in the humidor and my hygrometer is now reading 69F and 75% RH so i think everythings great now. Il feel the cigars and see if they are crumbling or too wet, and il just remove one of the humidifyers if i have any more problems. Thanks for all your help and take care. |

| 2009-01-06 | patrick | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thanks a lot Bill. While I visited a couple of hardware stores today, I found some weather stripping tape and some vinyl strips. I think that I'll try to tackle this like a drafty window and keep the liquid caulk idea on the back burner for now. I appreciate all of your help. Thanks again & Good Luck-Patrick |

Expertise
I'm a fourth generation cigar maker and have spent 25+ years operating our factory as well as a mail order cigar company. I belong to cigar manufacturers associations as well as retail cigar associations so I'm usually up to date with current events relating to cigars. I've smoked the majority of brands on the market and would be happy to share my opinions of them with you. Since I live in the U.S. I have very little experience with Cuban cigars, but other than that I know a least a little bit about almost every brand of cigars on the market.
Experience
In addition to growing up in and now managing our cigar factory for 25+ years, I've spent time in many factories in Honduras, Nicaragua, The Dominican Republic and Mexico. BR>
