free plans: how to make a Wine Rack  | 
| Basic Description | Since most wine gets better with age, wine enthusiasts need a method to store their bottles.  Below you
	will find a free plan for a remarkably simple wall-mounted bottle storage rack that attractively displays
	your collection.  We describe several layouts to maximize
	the use of available wall space.  The design employs efficient use of materials; you won't believe that
	you can securely hold so many bottles with so little wood. | 
| Materials | wood, mounting screws, finishing oil. A complete material list is provided below. | 
| Tools | table saw, bandsaw or jigsaw or scrollsaw, drum sander or oscillating spindle sander (if you plan to surface rough boards you will also need a jointer and surface planer). A complete tool list is provided below. | 
| Cost | The plan itself is free! Estimated cost of materials: $7 | 
| Time | 3 hours | 
| Difficulty | Moderate |
