BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Fixing Humidor Seal
Ninja, what do you mean by "food grade" silicone? Wouldn't the silicone you would pick up at a pet store be fine? If not, where do you go about getting food grade silicone? Silly me, I thought silicone was pretty much silicone, lol. -
Fixing Humidor Seal
I'm not of much help here, I'll let Ron follow up, but one thing to keep in mind: some of the "less expensive" humidors with the glass tops can also have sealing issues around the glass. So if you are still having problems once you fix the main seal issue, that may be your culprit. Never had... -
Door for Edgestar 28 bottle
I like the Cherry door, that's nice. Really like WaxingMoon's work overall. That man is going to get me in trouble... -
Mr.Friday's NewAir 28 Wineador
Cool, thanks for the explanation. Good points. -
NC vs CC
Wow. Amazing how repetitive the threads that are generated from this question are. They always seem to follow the same downward spiral. Kudos to those on this site for keeping it more civil and under control than most places I've seen this conversation play out. And as to the back and forth... -
Mr.Friday's NewAir 28 Wineador
Very nice. If I had one small critique, it would be that the trays seem very thick in their construction. I don't have experience with them (yet), but it seems overly robust in the construction. Not a huge deal, but certainly could affect the amount of storage you get out of them. -
Mumford and Sons
I need to pick up the album. They are intensely overplayed on the radio station I listen to, but I do like what I've heard. -
Howdy from the Hills of Kentucky.
Welcome aboard. You are certainly in the right place to be enjoying some top-level bourbon! Mmmmmmm...bourbon.- Jwrussell

St Augustine March 28 to April 30
Yep, you are right, I can remove the maybe from my end as well. :( I already have the Friday off that week because my wife's cousin is coming into town to celebrate his 21st B-Day. I'll have family in starting around the 5th. -
St Augustine March 28 to April 30
DAMN. I've just taken quite a bit of time off this month and have more scheduled already for April I think. Gonna be hard to break free, but I'll see what I can do. -
St Augustine March 28 to April 30
Damn, Ray. You need to pick somewhere closer to Tampa! I'm booked almost solid in April. May be able to get away the weekend of the 19th, not sure. So close... -
Noob Bead question
Hmmmm...sounds like the same stuff. Interesting that they note the +/- accuracy range. Have to wonder if HF has the same general characteristics which might explain why some people seem to think that the HF beads hold closer to 67-68% than 65%. Just did a quick search and found a couple of... -
Igloodor shelves
I wouldn't use Plywood. No telling what it might be giving off or what issues you might deal with. I would count yourself lucky you've had no problems and get the cedar or go with the wire shelves as above. I just wouldn't be sure if I could trust the glue not to off-gas in any way. As was... -
Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)
Monte Especial from the late 90's. "REFINED" is just about the only word I can use to describe this smoke. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm, coming in a close second. :wink: -
So what'cha readin'???
Chasing The White Dog. A book on Moonshining that my wife picked up for me as a Valentine's day gift. Good book so far.- Jwrussell

Tubos
It may not have been what they were originally designed for, but I strongly disagree with the suggestion that they don't age well in the tubes. One of the all-time best cigars I ever had was a Bolivar Tubos No. 2. It is a DIFFERENT style of aging, as you are only melding the flavors of the... -
HELP! - Humidity is dropping and I'm in a flippin' desert!
Good advice above. 65% is just fine. No need to really worry about things until you start getting close to or below 60%. Most here keep there cigars closer to 65% than 70%. And what they said, get yourself some beads or Boveda packs. Sounds like your humi might be leaking if you are losing... -
What If/Should it be done?
Coming really close to pulling thread off the rails here, but just a random thought for you to mull over: I guarantee you purchase products made in China. Secondly, the embargo has done squat to change the status quo as far as that goes, so why leave it in place? It isn't helping to change... -
Tupperdor Advice
This. Was wondering about the felt myself. Not only do I think it isn't necessary, I would worry if the fabric might not introduce something into the environment I wouldn't want...also, might soak up moisture (not sure, just thinking out loud here) which would be bad. With that set up, bet a...
