Bucket23 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Does anybody know where to buy some in Brisbane, or even in Australia to then get shipped to Brisbane. I'm looking at making a floor to ceiling humidor. 2100mm high x 800mm wide x 450mm deep (approximate). I am building three of these, one for the humidor and two for bourbon bottles and display cabinet. I was thinking of making with pine and then lining the humidor one with the spanish cedar. The alternative is making all three with spanish cedar, but I think it will be too expensive. I haven't worked out the humidification setup yet (electric or otherwise). Just concentrating on building the cabinets for the den and then I'll work out the rest, i.e. ventilation for the room, etc. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partriar Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Sounds like a pretty awesome plan... Dont know if they stock it, but a few places to try... Big Red Shed at Darra A Wood Shed also at Darra David Linton Furniture & Timber at Maleny Also just a little more info that i learnt when thinking about doing something similar.... i believe Spanish Cedar isnt a Cedar and is more in the mahogany family. There is a maghogany which has the same properties in terms of humidication and smell as red cedar. Buggered if i can remeber which but im sure the wood places will tell you.

rckymtn22 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Just do a search, tons of information over the years on spanish cedar and where to get it in Austrailia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmers Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I got my custom shelves shipped from Forrest (@ http://wineadors.com) a few yrs ago. Your exchange rate pain will be much greater now, but the quality is great! edit - Forrest has shipped many orders to Australia, for folk here as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did do a search but only found one place in Sydney, which doesn't stock it anymore. They said it was a controlled species. Do you know of any inparticular?

Onelove Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 In one thread on this El Pres gave the name of the company he used for the walk in FOH headquarters in Brisbane. Read it a long time ago though so not sure which thread its in. You might have to look through all the pages in this section. Edit: found the old post with a Google search, try Harris Furniture at Sumner Park, if it pans out thank El Presidente. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
