Danby 12 Bottle Maitre D - Wineador

[alden]

Costco just delivered my Danby 12 bottle wine cooler. My plan is to turn the bottom half of into a wineador and the top half I plan to keep for 6 really good bottles of red wine.

so far at home I've got:
-a pound of 65% RH heartfelt beads.
-An oust fan
-2 cedar trays from bargain humidor (who btw have great customer service)

in the future:
-hopefully I can get few drawers made for me

I'll post pics as I go through the set-up.

If you think that entire thing won't be filled up with cigars and only cigars in the very near future, you are completely wrong!! :hysterica:rolling:


On a side note, good luck with it, I hope everything works out for ya!

I'm know it'll happen, it's just a matter of time. Then I'll buy a cooler specifically for the wine. So, I should be in the market for one in the next week or so.:grin:

Just realized I have way more beads than I need.

I just did the calculations from the Heartfelt Sticky and I only need 0.23lbs of beads.

I might buy either a new bag .5lb bag or a 2 4 oz tubes

Well, here it is so far.

Just need to have drawers made, then I'll be done.

Behind the 3 doors to the left is a small beer fridge.

Thanks for the reminder. I'm definitely a believer in budgeting.

hopefully if I've budgeted correctly, I've only got a few months of CC bills left, then I'll be done with them. Can't wait to be free of those damn CC's. They've been on my back since college.

All I'll have left is the mortgage and monthly bills, cable, internet etc.

I should be done with CC by the time I get Married in october and that'll be paid off by then also.
