Bottle Stopper Display Stands

Apr 17, 2017

Yesterday was Easter. Tomorrow is Tax Day 2017. What Irony is this?

I have been asked to share my bottle stopper display plans when they were seen in my video on fixing air compressor problems. See https://youtu.be/gM8jazauoUI

I made these up post-haste as I was preparing for my first Crafts Show.

I looked around for ideas and didn’t see any that would display the stoppers as I wanted to.

So I dreamed this one up. I found the imagination somewhere.

I used a clear acrylic stopper display stand from PSI as my template for size and distance between holes, and for heights of the levels.

The holes are ¾” and I drilled them with a Forstner bit. I located the holes center on the board and spaced as in the diagram. This wood is a 3/8” hobby/craft wood available at Lowes. ¼” would have been too thin, ½” too thick. This works perfect for me.

Rounded over holes and stand edges with 1/8” router bit.

As I said, this was a post-haste project. This came out rough and uneven in places, not as I was expecting. Mistakes. “That is the stuff of which great projects are made from.” After things settle down a little I plan to make a better plan. For now, see my hand sketched plans on the 3rd page.
