A Decorative Wine Rack

A Bottle “decorate” the house or cellar and is indispensable as it saves lots of space and allows the containers to keep warrant special treatment. Stores can be found in a variety of offerings: wood, ceramic or plastic. But why do not they build one yourself? Besides the obvious savings, worth taking time to showcasing their own skills and perfection in details. The proposed model adapts well to different environments, takes up little space and can contain up to 50 bottles. The main feature of its construction is very interesting because no assembly and installation is done through thick square strips.
The materials to make a wine cellar
The materials are specified in the table: the slats (pine fir 0) have a section of 40 x 40mm, and preferably should be free of knots or other defects and can be purchased already prepared, even for a small brushed- premium “in a lumber yard or in the workshop of a carpenter or a sawmill. Bars, threaded rods, nuts and blind normal and washers, will be found in any hardware store.
Drilling of the strips
The first operation to be performed on all strips is the delineation of the points at which it will make holes for the passage of the threaded rods, points are always in the middle of the width of the slats.
In the shorter strips (those 390mm) make only two strokes to 50mm from the ends. In the long (680mm) to perform the strokes are three: two to 50mm from the ends and the other exactly in the center. In the longer strips
(970mm) the characteristics are four: those used to 50mm plus two ends 340 and 630mm respectively from one end.
The drilling should be done as accurately as possible: it is therefore advisable to mount the drill on a stand equipped with vertical grips, to place the strips in place during drilling. You may use other types of guidelines for drilling, but drilling should be denied freehand. Use a wood drill 6mm in diameter, having the drill at full speed and making the wood slowly penetrating the tip.
For the finishing of the parts drilled using sandpaper fine-grained, so they are perfectly smooth the strips that have to overlap each other. Prior to assembly, apply the strips, at least two protective layers of mold, so that the wood, but is left unpainted, are protected from the aggression of parasites and fungi formation.
The assembly of the cellar
Before assembly, verify that the parts have been properly cut and perforated. After having placed in the appropriate order, enter in the holes a thin metal rod.
Next, cut 12 pieces of threaded rod 195mm long, making sure that the fillets are not bottled. The threaded rod is held in place using two pieces of soft wood, plastic 0 lead. After having cut, is reviewed each threaded end with a triangular file and then-inserted and removed, for two consecutive times, the nuts.
This is where you can insert the threaded rods into the holes in the slats, striking at their ends with a piece of wood. When you have inserted all the bars, before putting the nuts should definitely make sure you get a good bond between the parts to be assembled. Should also ensure that the diagonals of the squares that have formed are equal, thus avoiding the diamond-shaped joints.
Insert the washers and thread the nuts on the front. Then make that connection in the back not to mention the placement of the washers. The first will cap nuts, while the rear nut carried normal. With the 10mm wrench, tighten the nuts. The parts of the bars may protrude from the nuts on this side should be cut with a hacksaw and flatten with a fine file. This construction will be over: to support the bottle on the ground to check its good stability, which could be improved, if necessary, with a rasp blows.
The modular factor
It is interesting that this object can progressively be extended for a larger bottle with holes for more bottles. In the case of not having enough space on the floor, the structure can also be expanded in height and suspend it in the wall without any kind of difficulty, using well-chosen anchors.
If you intend to store bottles of Magnum, it should also proceed with a touch of the measurements. In this case you must increase the length of the threaded rods. If the intention is to store bottles in a particularly humid environment, it is desirable to protect the wood with a suitable varnish or transparent polyurethane synthetic grease paint. In both cases, achieves a very effective wood protection. It must be remembered, however, that the structure can be varied as desired if the space requirements would make a narrower cabinet and higher or wider and lower.

It’s perfect time to make some plans for the future and it’s time to be happy. I’ve read this post and if I could I desire to suggest you few interesting things or suggestions. Maybe you can write next articles referring to this article. I desire to read even more things about it!
Thank you for the good writeup. It in fact used to be a amusement account it. Glance complicated to more introduced agreeable from you! However, how could we keep up a correspondence?
