<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Curtisimo, post: 2614605, member: 83845&quot;]I have been hoping to merge two of my favorite hobbies, coin collecting and wood working, by constructing a custum built coin cabinet out of solid mahogany at some point in the future. </p><p><br /></p><p>My plan as it stands is to use kiln dried solid mahogany wood, water based finishes and no felt. I will place each coin in an air tite capsule (I am aware they are not airtight and even slabs are somewhat permeable).</p><p><br /></p><p>I know that many of you have reservations about wood cases and I totally respect your opinions and understand the gassing problems even in a stable wood like mahogany.
