    Urbs, you're cabinet has me all giddy. Would you mind disclosing her price tag?

    That's what she said. (I have no idea what that means. It just seemed like I should say it.)

    I paid $599.

    Classic urbi. Thats not bad at all. hmmmm.

    Oh and btw, any idea how far Paducha, KY is from you?
  • urbinourbino Posts: 4,517
    Yeah, there are several places that price it in that range. The only trick is finding one with reasonable shipping.

    I don't really know how far it is. I'd guess it's a few hours by car, though.

    Urbi that cabinet looks awesome congratulations.

  • urbinourbino Posts: 4,517
    Thanks, dep! I'm hoping it's awesome when it gets here.

    It occurs to me that it's guaranteed to be useful. Even if I stop smoking cigars someday, it'd be a great cabinet for storing wool sweater.

    Hey Urbi, how much did you pay for shipping. I paid $200 for mine but it came with a free Hyrda LG. So, I guess this is what I'll use for humidification along with some beads.

    Heh, its 3.5 hours, looked closer. Thats a little far for an evening herf.
  • urbinourbino Posts: 4,517
    Yeah, that'd be a bit much. It may be just as well, though. With the hours I'm working right now, I wouldn't exactly be "high availability," as they say.

    I paid $150, banana. I'm not familiar with the Hydra. I'll have to look that one up.

    All this posting on here takes up too much of your day, eh? What is it you do now Urbs? I remember hearing a few things you used to do but not what you currently do.
  • urbinourbino Posts: 4,517
    I do the software thang. Senior developer/architect kind of stuff.
  • madurofanmadurofan Posts: 6,219 ✭✭✭
    Cool. So you design the garbage that I have to make work for the customer ;). I kid.
  • urbinourbino Posts: 4,517
    Yes, we've seen some of you consultant types blow through. It's amazing, the vortex of cash you pull out the door behind you. :)

    Especially considering the very little amount of work we do. I guess it makes up for the way you developer types document your software.

    Truly.

    Well, the humi left Orlando at 5:13 this morning, at a fighting weight of 185 lbs. What's that make it? A light-heavyweight?
  • urbinourbino Posts: 4,517
    FedEx Trucking says it'll be delivered on the 16th. They'll have to haul some serious ass to make that date.

    That Hydra LG looks pretty sweet, banana. I think you may have gotten a better deal than I did.

    I hope it works as well as the Oasis.

    Dang, Bino (I like that better... Bino before, there'll be no gas after) -

    That's a serious setup. I was so engrossed in this thread that I totally missed my 9 AM meeting. Normally, that'd be OK, but it was a 1-on-1 meeting, so I know I was missed :)

    dodgy huh?
  • urbinourbino Posts: 4,517
    Well I'll be darned. They did haul some serious ass. The local terminal called today to say they have my humi, and scheduled delivery for tomorrow morning. Wheeeee!
  • gmill880gmill880 Posts: 5,947
    Sweet ....guess you'll be callin in excited er i mean sick and workin on this baby all day. keep us posted 'Bino....just when i thought i was out.....they pull me back in.....have no idea why i typed that
  • urbinourbino Posts: 4,517
    Nah. I mean, if I could start loading it up right away, sure. But, obviously, all I can really do is put it in its little nook and let it start seasoning. I've got me an Oasis II XL (which, btw, is bigger than all outdoors), so I'll sock that in there and a bowl of distilled water, and let it simmer.

    I figger the very earliest I'll be able to put anything in it will be Mon. Aside from the volume of air, that's a lot of cedar to get humidified and stabilized.
  • dutyjedutyje Posts: 2,263
    Just one bowl? You may want to set an acquarium or two in there. That's a lot of wood. The air will exchange dramatically once you open it. I think you'll want it nicely over-humidified to get started, especially with this dry winter air.
  • madurofanmadurofan Posts: 6,219 ✭✭✭
    That Oasis II is meant for walk in humidors. I'd say if you cranked that up to 80% you could be seasoned in 24 hours.

    Well, I'm talking about a big mixing bowl, but you may be right anyway.

    The II is definitely much bigger than I expected. When the humi gets here (they're running late), I'll crank it up to "Bayou" and see what happens.

    Houston, the Eagle has landed.
