Hey Jason. Amazing I saw this. Haven't been hanging around here for a week or so now.
Haven't had the box on for a while now. All the thin plates are assembled into boxes right now. I'm sanding the boxes to get ready for finish.
I'll need to dry out the FB's and neck wood soon.
Thing is, in SoCal it isn't that cold and it rains in the winter - has been for the past two days. So the humidity is over 70% in my shop how.

Is humidity higher than in the summer? Where in your house - out of the dry box - is it dry enough to keep a fingerboard stable during glueup? It's been raining pretty steadily here and I've been lucky to get below 50% for any reasonable length of time.

Usually it is higher in the winter than in the summer, though:
- The winter temperature is lower so it is easy to bring it down
- This summer was very humid, so not so much

The house is pretty much all the same (70% @ 68F), so there is no place out of the box to store anything.

Why don't you put a dehumidifier in the box? Elevate the box off the ground, drill a hole in the bottom, and hook up a drain tube from the dehumidifier tank out of the box to either a drain valve or a bucket underneath.....or am I missing something here?
