Wine Rack for Basement Corner

[k47k]

I had a corner of my basement reserved for storing junk. i had my dad build me this wine rack. each row holds 12 regular bottles or 9 big bottles. now i need to ramp up production!

Looks good! It will fill up faster than you think.

Nice work, now the fun part to fill it. Almost as much fun as depleting it!

k47k, very nice work! I like the fact that you can count your inventory relatively quickly with that set up.

I have one similar and love it. All my bottles are salvaged, so there not all the same, sometimes i can get 5 across sometimes 6. The rack like yours without the rounded part makes it easier for different size bottles.

I am wondering about a detail of the construction (because I am possibly interested in copying this design). Can you tell us how the vertical dividers are constructed? are they individual, small pieces, or did your dad cut slits in both the shelves and large sheets that form the dividers?

Looks really good nice work

Can you tell us how the vertical dividers are constructed?

The vertical dividers are 1/4" plywood the horizontal shelves are 3/4" ply. the 1/4 vertical dividers sit in a slot (dado) that is milled in the top and bottom of the shelves.

hope this answers your question, if not PM me and ill explain further.

Thank you for the information. I understand what you are saying. Wow, that is a lot of dadoeing. Your dad is a patient man. I think you owe him a few bottles of wine!!

Nice wine rack..

Both storage methods are beautiful. The corner unit is awesome. Can't imagine what that cost to build. Our wine room shelves are less attractive (OSB blocks holding 12 with labels). The gentleman that put in our cooling system told me our storage room was 'HUGE." Gosh, I really think we are small scale in comparison to what I am seeing in the classifieds.

Looks great. I'm sure it'll be full soon!
