This is box 4568 out 5000 of the Partagas Serie D #4 Reservas. After $5 trip to Michael's (craft store) for 1/4 craft foam, (2) 8 1/2x11 sheets of felt and (2) 1/4 x 1 inch wood strips this was the result.
My first str8 case/cigar box conversion.

Very nice. Nothing like a deluxe container for our finer things.
You do good work.
You do good work.
Man, that looks sweet......I want one!
Smoke 'em if you got 'em!
Looks great! The third razor from the top looks pretty sweet!

Hadn't thought of that. There's something I could do with my empty cigar boxes. Nice case and smokes

Thank you Gentlemen! The cool thing about it is that there was very little glue involved in the whole process. I cut the foam and wood to as close a tolerance as possible and only used glue adhere the felt on to the wood dividers. Again, thank you for your comments.
My complements, Very nice workmanship.
The box itself is a rare find. Thanks for posting so others can be inspired.
As for myself, with careful planing and a strict budget I could over time afford the razors but not the cigars -- not at $50.00 a smoke.

Thanks to Lucky11453 I found Belt Outlet and ordered a Dresser Valet. And now thanks to you, I'll have to try to convert the drawer to a holder. Great idea. 
I've been using a cigar box for mine too but your's makes mine look embarrassingly ugly! So, you won't be seeing any pictures of it - until I do a little work maybe!! You've got me inspired!
Nice work my friend...very slick.

Initially I was going to use a Cohiba Maduro 5 Genios box but it was too thin (cigars come in one row of ten) and the San Cristobal de La Habana Murallas box is too wide. The Reservas box is the perfect size for a 7 day set.
Nice work. I love seeing everyone's ingenuity around here.
That's a lovely box and a great conversion job too congrats my friend.
Wow, that looks awesome, great work!
+1 Awesome work!
And exactly how much did that box of cigars cost? Lol - please don't answer that. That is a great piece of work Baya - very cool
very elegant choice for the cigar box- your results are worthwhile! Congrats.
looking good!

You know how it is Bro, pick your AD. Cigars, str8s, it's all good.
I LIKE it.
Nice job on the straights box. You might want to think about a few of those desicant packs to absorb any humidity. Spanish cedar is somewhat hydroscopic (it absorbs and releases moisture).Similar threads
