This weekend, I descended down my little cellar to fix my new wine racks to the walls. After a lot of sweat - working in this tight space the cellar somewhat loses its coolness -, some frustration about never having the right plug/screw/screwdriver/flashlight at your fingertips the moment you need it and some drilling in hard to reach places, I finish the job.
I try to put some bottles in their new places but decide the entire relocation job has to wait until tomorrow. I notice how the front of the bottle is quite a bit lower than the end and fear for the Burgundy models bottles; now the ever present danger of the bottles sliding forward and off the back rail seem much higher. Mmmm ...
Today, after considering a few storage strategies, I start moving the bottles from the shelves to the racks, only to discover I can only place 4 instead of 5 bottles on each rack level. Weird!
Even though I am the proverbial guy with two left hands, I now understand what I did wrong and a quick glance at the 3 racks confirms this: I put two of them upside-down!
And after turning them upside-up, of course the holes in the racks don't line up with the plugs in the wall so new drilling is called for. The story continues.

Yes, the story continues.., I mean you need constant improvement in most of the wine racks. One should be very careful while selecting from wine racks for sale.
