I have been busy getting my storm cellar converted into a wine cellar. Will post some pictures on the project later. It is a pre fab concrete cellar and has always seeped a little water through the seam where it was manufactured from two pieces but I never worried about it too much because over the course of a year it never got much over 4-5 gallons of water and I would just vacum it out. Well, I bought some concrete sealer and have put two coats on the seam, will do the same to the to the floor seams as soon as the rain quits later this week. I have also put 1" blueboard insulation on the ceiling and have insulated the walls 24" down from the ceiling. I felt that since there was only about 4" of the walls above ground level that this would suffice for the walls. Time will tell. I am going to build somethe racks for my wine storage and am limited as to what size I can build by the restrictions of the door opening on the cellar which is 30" tallx 36" wide. Got my first rack finished yesterday evening. It is made of treated 2 x10 for the sides, cedar for the racks and the header and footer is pine. Will give at all a coat of clear poly before I move it into the cellar. I am no carpenter as you can tell but I was going for functional. Did add a personal touch to it by using my brand to put the cats meow logo on it.
Also bought this rack on e-Bay and should get it about Friday.
