Building a walk-in

[Tanga]

Here are som pictures of my ongoing project, a walk-in humidor!

I bought a house last summer. The house hade a food storage place in the celler and I thought that it could be converted to a walk-in. The room is 1,95x1,30m (6,5x4,5 feet).

Here I have removed floor, shelves, the door and an air inlet.

The maineletric cabel is coming through the wall and goes down under the floor. Here I have used a drill hammerto counter zink it in to the wall.

Now I have repaird the hole.

I had to move some elctrics. I have also lowered the ceiling for som LED spots.

The power switch was moved to the outside. I have also even out som holes in the wall.

More pictures on the ceiling and on the electrics. I have also aplied a primer on the walls to keep the moisture in.

I have used plaster on the whole wall.

More primer and the door frame is fitted.

Old looking tiles on 3 walls.

The ceiling was painted white.

The arch was plastered and the door frame was painted white.

Moldings are fitted, the floor is primed and the naked wall is painted. This is how far I have come at the moment. I think that the project is coming along quite nicely! The only bad thing is that we have been sick and I have not worked with it in the last 3 weeks. I should not take al the credit either. I am working with my father that is some kind of building guenius!

Looks good so far. What type of humiliation system will you be using and will you be cooling the walk in also? Not sure where you live. How about the shelving, what type of wood, cabinet, etc?

I will not be coolingit, it is quite cold in Sweden. I think that it is going to be very seald so I am only going to use a ultrasonic air moisturiser. I do not think that I need a big industrial system. I have a friend that is running a cigar store, he is using the same system in his walk-in. At first he was going to buy some expensive stuff but when he tried a regular air mosisturiser (wilfa hue-6b) he was possitively surprised!

I am going to use a shelve system with consoles and vertical u-beams with hole in them for the consoles. Not the prettiest but flexible. I am going to store my whisky and rum collection aswell. I am going to have shelves on two brick walls, one short and one long. I am going to have two shelves tilted 20 degrees on the short side to have ceder trays with singles. The shelves will be 18mm oak (3/4" I think it is) and I will have 7 layers.
