davek Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Looking for something with 2 or 4 lower glass doors and a top that is least 18-24 inches wide and 4 to 6 feet long. I can't build it myself and looking to spend about $500-$600. I like the Howard Miller Cabernet but everything I see has wine holders which would be completely wasted as I want to display. This would be perfect if it didn't have the wine part and wasn't $1000 not including shipping. I want something that is quality not quantity.

p_elliott Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Have you tried Googling this on the internet I found several that fit your bill in description but not in price. They're a lot more expensive than your planning on. But they look real nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davek Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 I was searching craigslist in my area and found this solid wood Pier 1 Imports set up listed, like new for $100. Called the guy and offered $75 cash and I would get it tonight. He agreed. I plan on oiling it up, taking out the wine holders and putting in 2 shelves. I just need to find someone to cut theshelves for me or try and find the perfect pre-made size in the store. Drill shelf holder holes, get a few shelf pins and BOOM...done. I may re-stain it...but I kinda like the way it is. I really wanted a glass door but this will do I guess. Can anyone suggest any simple modifications? Here it is: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Reserve Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Dave,I agree with Joe, but you can think of this as being a starter cabinet.Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rughi Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 It sounds crazy but you might "need" space for your 20 or 30 "current drinkers" to be out in your cabinet/ hutch/ sideboard. You can store the rest in the bunker. Also, as you've implied, it's best not to lay down your wikkey - cork taint or even leakage of the precious fluids could result.

davek Posted December 24, 2008 Author Share Posted December 24, 2008 Dave,I agree with Joe, but you can think of this as being a starter cabinet.WillExactly. I just picked it up....looks nice.It has an extension on the back and if I rip out the wine holder...I can shelf that space. Thinking...including the top...I can fit 100 bottles in/on it.Should have it filled in................3 days :slappin::slappin::slappin::slappin::slappin::slappin::slappin::slappin::slappin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stones Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 This one is illustrated with a beer barrel but it would also suit a buffalo trace barrel in the middle for you and your best mates to rest their savoured pours on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
