  • Time to make a home for our wine collection. When we moved into our house we had a large mezzanine storage area built over the garage. It's a former stable so a very handy 3.5 metres tall.
    I made some plans in Sketchup and made a Travis Perkins order.
    Starting with 4 sheets of 2400 x 1220 x 18mm plywood, after a couple of days I had all the wood cut to size:

    The basic frame was glued and screwed and cutouts made for the large pipe. The centre uprights are fixed and are glued, screwed at the top and located by metal dowels at the bottom.

    The top was put on, glued and screwed, along with the last fixed upright. The movable upright dividers are just placed there to check for size in this photo. They are located with L shaped brackets so they can be adjusted to fit different sized bottles.

    First set of dividers fixed, might as well try it out:

    The pipe and wires will be hidden by some modified wooden wine cases that my local wine merchant is going to give me. The plan is to put some nice doors on this with metal mesh panels.
