| Details for Wine Rack Plans
Free Wine Rack plans - As a woodworker, I enjoy using my skills to make gifts for loved ones. But in order to make these gifts fit into my holiday budget, I need to come up with a design that goes beyond the ordinary without breaking the bank. That’s the thinking behind the challenge to build a wine rack for less than $25. My first stop was the lumberyard. I was looking for material with warm, rich tones that would complement the old-world design I had in mind. My first choice was South American mahogany; but at $14 per board foot, a quick calculation determined that I would need to find something much more economical. My lumber dealer suggested African mahogany (often referred to as khaya), and it proved ideal. This wood is very close in appearance to its South American counterpart, but at half the price, the three board feet I needed fit the budget perfectly. (See the cut list plan on page 34 for details on how to get the most from your stock.)
