After a couple of brief encounters with fungii, I've thought of
constructing my own 'dry' box using something like a perpex counter display
unit (I've got a nice perfume one with mirrors, etc.) fitted with a UV
light on a timer and a dehumidifier unit. I believe there are small
dehumidifiers made for gun cabinets but haven't been able to find one yet.
Anyone...anyone...?
