Smile Finally getting that Aristocrat

Well I have officially done what I have wanted to for years, started Bob on the mission of creating me a nice cabinet to move my stogies into. I spoke with Bob last week and worked out the many details. Then I thought about it over the weekend and called Bob back today with more questions and some revamped specs. Bob was an absolute great guy to visit with!

Now for the hard part......waiting!

So what did you decide on? Details. We need details.

I decided on an MXT (19") in Black Walnut with a Burl inlay top and door panels. Had it configured for 4 drawers and 3 shelves so that I would have more storage for loose cigars. I've got one 120 qt cooler that is completely full and nothing but loose cigars (five packs, ten packs, partial bundles, gifts, etc.) Hopefully they will all fit in the four drawers. If not I guess I will maintain a small size cooler until they can all be moved over.

I'll be sure and post some pics. I'm actually just going to drive down and pick it up when Bob lets me know it's ready. I told him I'd really like to tour the place and check out his operation. He just said...."well come on".

In that case, you better make sure to take some pics of Bob's operation. It sounds like a nice article in the making. Interested?

I spoke with Bob yesterday and it sounds like I'm just two weeks away from having a trip to go pick up my MXT. I'm getting like a kid waiting for Christmas morning! Can't hardly wait!!
