Where is everyone? It would be interesting to see what local climates do. I only have 50% humidity at the moment which is pretty standard for year round. Temperature outside fluctuates greatly (snowing at the moment ) but inside is with 4 degrees year round where my guns are stored.

Which is why I moved my safe into a brick enclosed building and put 1kg of those silica crystals in the safe.


Interesting
You'd be similar to me then,guessing i have altitude on my side. The crystals are my choice.
My walls are a Styrofoam box.
