For weeks I have been looking for a cheap solid way to build a wine rack and I think I accomplished just that.
Simplest idea I could think of: shelves with small slope (2%) so that via gravity wine bottles can't move along the shelves when a shelf is almost empty.
Most if not all of my wine are 6 gal carboys which is accommodated by two rows on a shelf.
Total cost $45.
Capacity: designed/built for 5 batches so 150 bottles with two rows on each shelf but really it could accommodate more bottles per shelf if I happen to make the same wine before one goes out of stock which will happen soon for the dragon blood.
