Saw this recently in the US, thought it might be an idea that some may like.

Lots of work gone into that plonk outfit

at least three kinds of wood; well finished too !
 
Good find. It's the type of thing that many might buy if the price is right and then only use once before loosing in a drawer! :lol: Lots of ways to spruce it up though to help them sell.
 
This page points out something that hadn't occurred to me;

You can use two of the two-glass type together to hold 4 glasses.

But I think the design in the original image posted by Brian is better than most;
the common end-on type of slot for the glass looks like it might
be prone to the user, carrying the wine bottle, pushing the glasses
out of the slots (smash!) whereas the side-on slots of the Brian's image
should prevent this.

"You can use two of the two-glass type together to hold 4 glasses."

That means half as much wine per glass = bad. ;-)
 
Hi Brian,
I have been making these wine YOKES for the last 4 years now,and they are still a good seller.I may make some of the laminated ones,good way to use up scrap bit of wood.If you want you can look at Began as a Tree-PJM Woodcrafts on facebook,Janette has some photos on there.

thanks for idea, and pattern link, here is my first go at one of these. Sadly I don't drink wine and it doesn't look so good on a gin bottle, but here it is on a Bacardi bottle my sister left (amazed there's anything in it!)

P.S. put this on my FB page a little while ago and have already had 3 orders, thank you :D

Hi all, this would make a great Christmas present for some of my family but I could do with some help. I don't drink at all so I have no idea of sizing for this. Do the ones in the plans for naznomad for well for UK wine bottle and glasses?
 
Hi Stooby, when I printed off pattern from link, it was awfully wee, so copied it into inkscape and enlarged it til I got a size that fit a bottle, would be happy to email you my copy if you like?
