I want to build a humidity controlled cabinet to store my cameras and lenses.

Any ideas would be welcomed.

I use a more or less airtight cupboard with a dehumidifier which cost about$60. Works well. Of course that's assuming you want to reduce humidity rather than increase it.

Bought a Wonderful cabinet off a former member here on the marketplace works great
As humidity can be a problem ( Not all the time at my Location) still its protection

Google it !

Getting what ever you use for the cabinet airtight is the challenge.

I tried various 'airtight' containers and rechargeable desiccant packs and eventually settled on a Wonderful Dehumidifier Cabinet (Model AD-026C). At <$200 I don't know whether it would be worth the mucking around to build one.

PS: eBay have a 20% Off Promo for the next two days.
