WOOD SHOP: WINE BOTTLE STAND
- Madjax Maker Force 515 East Main Street Muncie, IN, 47305 United States (map)
Learn to build your own decorative wine bottle holder while developing practical woodworking skills in the wood shop. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll create a simple bottle holder designed to store a wine bottle at an angle, helping keep the cork in contact with the wine.
Along the way, you’ll learn basic measuring, cutting, drilling, sanding, and finishing techniques and explore different variations of the design that you can recreate on your own.
No previous woodworking experience is required. All materials and equipment are provided, and you’ll leave with a finished wine bottle holder to take home.
This is $10 for members (use coupon: WOODSHOP) and $25 for guests. Space is limited.
