Check out the following thread. I think that there's some threads on sealing cabinets for use with Humidors but they aren't jumping out at me.

I do have to make some long term decisions about what will inevitably be way more cigars than any one person needs at a single time.
You almost got your first disagree for this statement 😂
Lol! *second
Someone didn't agree with my thought about maybe getting a newair humidor.
I'm actually now wondering if maybe taking an old chest we have, sealing the lid up nice and tight, and lining the inside with Spanish cedar... It might just be the alternative to the coolidor, which I know my wife will not be a fan of.
Bought an apache waterproof case today. Thinking I will buy a couple cigar trays and drop them inside the case's foam inserts with a few boveda packs and use this to age cigars.
You might have humidity issues unless the wooden tray is already at or near your chosen humidity. You may need to occasionally open it to turn over the air to prevent mold. Or I could be completely wrong. Has happened before.

Looks like a herfador on steroids. I've seen people use gun cases for cigars too at Herfs. Might work great, but you'd want to open it and air it out occasionally, like when you grab a cigar, like @ShawnOL says above, but that's true of anything with a great seal.

I guess I should have also mentioned that I was planning on seasoning the trays before storing cigars in there.

Ahhh. So the point is, there's such a thing as tooooo airtight.
Correct. If you plan on aging and aren't going into it to smoke, turn the air over every once in a while. Too air tight could bring mold, not air tight enough could lead to dried out cigars unless you're managing the humidity.

I've got two of those, reviewed them on this forum. I don't even check, I just use the Boveda packs. Save your money and skip the fancy Bluetooth hygrometer. Especially at twice the original price.
Oh, and the app makes it easy to sell replacement Boveda packs which you can recharge yourself for free.

That's bad ass. Thanks for finding that for me.
Yes @matkn293 did I believe and I am currently playing
Not common cedar. Spanish cedar is what you're probably thinking. It's actually in the mahogany family.

Am I doing this right?
Yes
Looks like you're running low though, brother.
Looks like he needs a bigger humidor already.

My wife and I came to a compromise. She ordered new furniture for my office. Plenty of shelf space for booze, cigars, coffee and books.

Paint the cooler pink and she might not b*tch as much.
