Took one of my wife's necklace jewelry boxes...it measures 8 3/4 x 2 x 1 3/8 outside. I removed the guts except for the padded top which secures the cigars. I placed a strip of Spanish cedar lengthwise. It has a spring loaded hinge for a tight seal. It holds 2 6 x up to 52 ring cigars with a humipad or can hold larger length without humi pad. Will hold 2 AF Canones 8 x 52 without humipad.
