display case with humidity control

[Greg Martin]

my customer wants a wall mounted display case for his arch top which has humidity control. Im wondering what forum members have come up with ? what works what doesn't . pictures would be great as reference too thanks.

Stew Mac is closing out their Gerstner display case kit. I don't know if it would be happy with 50% internal humidity (or how to get it), but that's a start

stewmac s is ok. Ill be building the case from exotics,and was really wondering about the humidity control. what is available ,what would you use for multiple display cases in a room etc. something pro !

A humidity controlled room!



Sorry, couldn't resist.

I would create a rectangle out of 1X6 stock and get a glass shop to fab a door out of safety glass. If you make it small enough and tight enough you can use some of the hydration packs in the case.

so what are the critical points when building a humidified display case just a sealed box? is it really that simple? .does it need a small vent? What % is best 40,50% what else am I missing? thanks
