Making my own wine rack


So I decided to put our loose wine bottles somewhere so they would be out of the way, but easy to find a bottle.

I could have easily drank them all, but after further thought, decided to convert one of our downstairs closets into a mini wine cellar.

I was originally going to build it in place, but my wife convinced me to build it so it could be relocated in the future, so I started to think out a design.

I decided to build it using Pine wood (I like the look and it's reasonably priced), only the supports were non-pine (fir).

Here is a link to the construction:

I made it to hold 18 bottles, 6 per row.  I build the rows separately, and then mounted on the 2x2 supports.
