Compare the finished objects and choose the construction that suits your project. Some designs supply the parts; others supply a profile or decorative detail.
Engraved Bottle and Glass Caddyby Stella RepettiCarry a bottle and two glasses together with a shaped wooden caddy. Stella’s shared design includes the outline, central bottle opening, curved stem slots and several separate engraving choices. The photos show two lettering versions. Choose the lettering you want and align it with the outline in your own copy.
Curved Wine Rackby Charles GanttCharles built this rack from red oak with two curved end panels joined by five spreader bars. The shared design supplies the end-panel profile, bottle openings and mortises. Make the straight spreader bars, tenons and dowel pegs separately using his illustrated instructions. The design is shared for noncommercial use.
Slotted Plywood Wine Rackby Keith SelboKeep several bottles together in a slotted plywood rack. Keith’s three workpieces contain the side panels, scalloped bottle-support rails and braces. He designed the joints for 5 mm material and confirmed that his build uses 5 mm birch plywood. Match the slots to the thickness of your own sheet.
Faceted Balancing Bottle Holderby Beyond DesignDisplay one bottle in a faceted wooden holder. Beyond Design’s shared project contains imported machining code for the form, rather than editable Easel shapes. The maker specifies a 1/8-inch ballnose bit and 3/4-inch stock, then describes sanding the foot angle to tune the balance. Treat this as a machining reference, not a shape you can customize in Easel.
Carved Balancing Bottle Holderby P-E MENARDCut a tapered holder with a bottle-neck opening and add a small carving to the face. P-E MENARD’s three workpieces supply two orientations of the holder profile and a separate animal engraving. His instructions describe cutting the foot to 45 degrees with a saw after carving, then sanding and waxing the piece. The design is shared for noncommercial use.
Tree and Snowman Bottle Racksby Katie ClevelandMake bottle storage part of a holiday countdown. Katie’s plywood project includes tree and snowman fronts, corresponding back panels and separate number engravings across six workpieces. The back panels have smaller openings to support the bottle necks. Her photos show assembled stands; use her linked build video for assembly and finishing.
Inlaid Balancing Bottle Holderby Paul HodgesAdd a wine-glass inlay to a balancing bottle holder. Paul used walnut, hard white maple and paduk for the pictured piece. His shared file supplies the inlay shapes, not the bottle-holder body, neck opening or angled foot. Make the holder separately, then use the design to add the contrasting detail.

David Mitchell made Charles’s rack in teak and shortened the spreader bars so their ends finished flush with the faces of the end panels. That changes the visible joint detail without replacing the curved rack panels. If you want the same flush look, use David’s version as the starting point for planning the bar ends.
