Build a Wine Rack

Setting out to build a wine rack is a great way to hone in on your carpentry skills or a good start towards a new hobby. Especially if you are a wine enthusiast then having a beautiful home made wine rack is a great idea. To build a wine rack you will need a pattern first off, either make one or buy one. When you build a wine rack remember that you will want to build a wine rack so that you can store your wine horizontally since the cork needs to remain wet or it shrinks and causes spoiled wine. Storing your wine horizontally also makes it easier to select the exact bottle of win you want. You also want to be sure that when you build a wine rack you allow room for the larger part of the wine bottle to be secure.

Selecting the right wood for your wine rack is also essential and you want to have a sturdy wood that is easy to work with. Some woods that are recommended are mahogany, pine, or fir. One of the other nice things when you build a wine rack is that you are getting exactly what you want with it, so you can build the wine rack so in the future it is easy to be added to. You can also stain it or paint it however you would like. Once you have all of your tools and woods ready it is time to start building your own wine rack. You should be sure to carefully follow all the plans exactly as they are written so your wine rack ends up as beautiful and sturdy as needed. If you leave it open so you can add to it you can have a whole basement full of your favorite wines in a few years and always have something different for any occasion.
