for a guy who is into wine...

he didn't know what they were....
Mrs.Trout said it was pretty funny watching him tring to figure out where he was going to hang them in his office..
after awhile she showed him that they went with the bottle of wine, after that they were the talk of the office...

Those are so cool Trout - I have seen patterns but I didn't know what they were either, Thanks for making me see ..lol

Nice work, Trout.

Curious here about the wine bottle holder - what angle is the bottom cut at so that the bottle counterbalances it - and does the size/shape of the wine bottle make a difference?

the bottom of holder is cut at a 55 degree angle..



and I don't think the size or shape makes a differance, it's all in how far you put the neck of the bottle in the hole to make it balance..

Mrs.Trout said it took her a few minutes to get the bottle right for it to stand up right..

I'm using 3/4 inch oak on these..

Thanks, Trout. I'll give it a go with a piece of scrap and make sure the wine bottle has something soft to land on when I test it ....

[Trout]

hey Puzzledmoose...

this is just one style of the bottle holder...



Bob was looking for idea's for routers and bits..
this project uses a 1/4 round over and a 1/4 rabbet bit..



it will even hold up cheap wine..

Very nice. Would you have the pattern for the Bottle and 4 Glass holder?

[Trout]

I love it when one of my old posts pops up...

hey Moose, I thought I got the pattern from Wildwood Design which is now CherryTree but I couldn't find it in their catalog or on line...
Sorry I can't help you out with the pattern....
