Wine Cellar Racking

This video is the building of the jig and the ladders for a wine cellar. Designed for normal, 750ml bottles, a case below the display shelf. I am making 2 runs of the racking and a Cascading Rack. To keep it all organized, I recommend and use CellarTracker. https://www.cellartracker.com/

The critical dimension here is 3.5". That's the spacing between all the elements and will perfectly fit a 750ml bottle. I made the runners 11" long. The cascade racking (double sided) was 23.75", but if I were to build this again, I'd make it 25". I was fighting for every inch in this cellar.

When building the jig, notice how a accounted for the ledgers on the front by increasing the spacing so the bottom of the ledger, when installed, would be 3.5" away/ above from the runner. I made the ledgers 1.5" wide.

When installing, the racking needs to be away from the wall by at least 2.25", I accomplished this by using 3 - 3/4" thick ledgers. The savings in wood overall is worth the racking being away from the wall.

Let us know if you make this and share pictures or tag us on Instagram.

Stay tuned for the installation.
