Hey everyone, I figured I might update people as to the progression of my wine closet that I wrote an article about here.  When I wrote the article me and my dad had just finished building it in an extra closet I had at my place (again thanks Dad).  The whole thing was pretty simple then with a board and trim going accross to make a counter top (a surprisingly sturdy one at that) along with a few store bought wodden wine racks.
