I built a wine rack/cabinet for the apartment. This was my first real carpentry project and I’m really happy with how it came out. It’s made of pine and aspen with a dark walnut stain. Total materials cost was about $140 and it took about 20 hours for myself and my friend Shawn to build.
I measured out the space where it would go, and then just kind of winged the design as we were buying the lumber and building the thing. It has room for 42 bottles in the rack plus the cabinet space, which is 22 inches wide by 12 inches deep and has a shelf in the middle. Here’s some pics of it in place under the counter/bar between our kitchen and living room.

It really is a thing of beauty.
Hey man, that looks really good. Didn't know you had it in you. Where did you manage to put this together and saw all the wood, etc? I'm impressed though, nice work.
I've seen it, and it is really pimp. Respect, respect.
