Labels

The higher quality Bordeaux bottles that taper down are a pain to put on without looking cockeyed.
Otherwise I use the glass seam on the bottle as my plumb line and start the label along that edge.

That’s what I’ve been doing but didn’t know if there was another, better way. Thank you.

So I have extreme OCD when it comes to making anything presentable. Is there a trick, or jig I can build to put labels on straight?

Off the top of my head, @joeswine uses a good ol' wooden miter box, and @NorCal has built a nifty laser guide out of a scanner. Maybe they will have links.

Here you go, the laser label aligner.

I like this. It's something I can put together with all my scrap wood downstairs! Thank you!!
