Make a Wine Barrel Storage Table

Make a Wine Barrel Storage Table
for my BBQ Accessories
Due to the theme, I used as a shelf the grid of an original Weber Grill with 22".

Thank you.

Just wanted to applaud your mad skills, although I do not have your skills and tools it was a pleasure to watch a craftsman at work.

[@CP-MakeItReal]

Thank you for the nice compliment - I learn with every project - just start with small projects ... and make it real ;-)

Hi, CP. I totally agree with Craig. I wish I have half of your skills. Do you sell the finished barrels? How mush are they?

[@CP-MakeItReal]

Thank you, but I'm sorry. I only built one for my BBQ area.

Really enjoyed the Video of your work. My Father recently built a wine barrel table for my wife and me he joined 4 of the top rounds to make a 4 leaf clover type table top it turned out really nice. The door hinge we have for the storage is not what he had hoped for the door sags a bit..The hinges you used look to be the perfect solution. I looked in the comments below but could not find the link to the hinges you mentioned in one of your replies. I was hoping you wouldn't mind posting it again.

[@CP-MakeItReal]

Thank you! The hinges are referred in German as "Kistenband" and are available at us in every hardware store. They are similar to "strap hinges" (rectangular instead of triangular shape) www.amazon.de/Scharniere-verzinkt-halbbreit-Gr%C3%B6%C3%9Fen-w%C3%A4hlbar/dp/B075QD81VV/ref=sr_1_5?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&keywords=kistenband&qid=1574001280&sr=8-5&th=1

Very nice job! What is the headless screw that you use to screw through the metal into the wood to avoid the woods from falling out when you cut the door? Can you tell me please? Thank you!

[@CP-MakeItReal]

Countersunk head screws - 3.5mm - for wood

[@MtnBadger]

Very cool project, not sure I get the BBQgrate. I presume a serving tray function? Adaptable to what ever shelf you want, but made me wonder.

[@CP-MakeItReal]

Many Thanks. I have taken the BBQ grate because I store my BBQ accessories in the barrel - it stands next to my grill (seen in another video). So it just goes well with the theme and if some grease gets to the tray, the grate is easy to clean (In the barrel bottom I have inserted as a protection a plastic disc). But it is easily replaced by any other shelf.

[@allenwilson9656]

Cool idea for the grate but why did you use the hinge grate with the removable center. You could have just used the standard grate and would have been cheaper ? The hinge grate is in the upper $ 30 and the standard grate is in the $20 range? I'm just curious 🤷‍♂️

[@Zeke8762]

Did you coat the outside wood and bands in oil for protection? Couldn't tell what the can was. Great job on this one.

[@CP-MakeItReal]

Thank you. I used ADLER Varicolor (Universal matt primer coating and topcoat for wood and metal, indoor and outdoor) mobile.adler-lacke.com/index.php?id=1001&type=11&categoryID=34&maincategoryID=5&productID=9528&cHash=6f10a5e49cce5e909469cf00cb2b40b2&type=11

[@mike8802]

Where did you get the magnetic stringline? I've never seen that before, think it's a great idea! Also what's sander did you use?

[@CP-MakeItReal]

The stringline is a standard chalk line which is used e.g. by tiler and two extra magnets to fasten the line. I use a Bosch Delta sander GDA280.

[@euro11AG]

Awesome job!!! I really like your channel. I wish I could have some of the nice tools you do.... I'm doing a storage wine barrel,with double door,usually I'm doing 2 ,but got stuck with the hinges, I watched some videos and some the do the hinges over the metal ring, I did on the outside,,2 in the middle of the door together but it doesn't work ,I tried close to the ends but the door won't open! an ideas ? I got the barrels almost done just the hinges are giving me hard time and I really don't know what to do o how. Thanks for your help!

[@dbnoho]

I'm having trouble planning my hinges. This might be the way I go. But why put the ring on the inside? Won't the outside steel ring hold everything together?

[@CP-MakeItReal]

I was afraid that the outer rings would bend with longer use. They are basically just drawstrings that pull the boards together and keep them in shape. Cut through, they now have to absorb bending stress when opening (and closing) the door. This should now be reduced by the additional inner bands.

[@CP-MakeItReal]

Thank you. This is a Makita 2107FK band saw. This band saw is for metal. No special adjustment. I only build a stand to use it as a stationary tool.

[@chrispeck3876]

Could you share the angle grinder tool and blade that you used? Thanks!

[@CP-MakeItReal]

I use a standard angle grinder (Bosch GWS xx-125) with a saw blade for wood (bought on amazon). eg. www.amazon.com/Gunpla-Pieces-General-Purpose-Cutting/dp/B07GBSVYN9/ref=sr_1_4?crid=Y7PMY0XBA88E&keywords=angle+grinder+saw+blade+for+wood&qid=1581794486&sprefix=angle+grinder+saw+blade%2Caps%2C265&sr=8-4

[@bookwormXmanga]

What type of hinges should I use? I made a similar style from my barrel but im finding the door is sagging and its a pain to close now.

[@CP-MakeItReal]

Hi. I installed the hinges with a bit of pretension and to relieve the hinges, I installed a double ball catch as a lock. The door therefore rests slightly on the lock when it is closed. Works pretty well so far.

[@bookwormXmanga]

@@CP-MakeItReal did you buy normal hinges and bend them to fit the barrel inside and out? Or did you use a specific hinge

[@CP-MakeItReal]

@@bookwormXmanga Hi, I used normal hinges from lokal hardware store (or Amazon) and bend them.

[@bookwormXmanga]

@@CP-MakeItReal ok thx

[@richardsabor4262]

Where did you get the hinges? I'd like to try that. Also, what size were the hinges & why did you cut them down?

[@CP-MakeItReal]

Hello, I have bought the hinges in the next hardware store (The hinges are also available at Amazon - see link with the dimensions 250mmx40mm) . I made the cut only for visual reasons - due to the bend, the hinge looks visually diagonal - after cutting they run approximately parallel to the outside barrel rings. www.amazon.de/Scharniere-verzinkt-halbbreit-Gr%C3%B6%C3%9Fen-w%C3%A4hlbar/dp/B075QD81VV/ref=pd_sbs_60_8?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B075QD81VV&pd_rd_r=b3034978-feb6-11e8-b808-fdb51f2211df&pd_rd_w=7xTJ4&pd_rd_wg=WMZCJ&pf_rd_p=51bcaa00-4765-4e8f-a690-5db3c9ed1b31&pf_rd_r=MDHPDA8ZBA66TRCFZMM6&psc=1&refRID=MDHPDA8ZBA66TRCFZMM6

[@rowanbennett1550]

Nice work. What screws did you use for the rings?

[@CP-MakeItReal]

Thank you. Countersunk head screws with torx - 3.5mm - for wood - stainless steel

[@peterarchambault4749]

where did you source the hinges?

[@christopherwidener2477]

What is the tool you used to smooth out the holes made by the drill...... before you placed the screws?

[@CP-MakeItReal]

I used a standard countersink drill bit

[@JacobEHewes]

Did you coat the inside of the barrel as well?

[@CP-MakeItReal]

No. It would have been a shame about the good wine smell. The barrel still smells of wine. I'm always happy when I open the barrel.

[@flyingmalkie4346]

Can’t sand it near this level with 40 grit paper, tried ordinary electric sanders, circular pad attachment for drill, just bucks the drill too uncontrollable, and hand sanding, takes me an hour to get one little bit half bare. And you did it with a palm sander?

[@CP-MakeItReal]

It just takes patience and a palm sander / delta sander. Worked fine for me. No special other tool for grinding.

[@flyingmalkie4346]

cp: make it real well I just got a belt sander with 40 grit and it still takes hours and I’m only sanding until half the grain shows bare

CP can you make a 3/4 barrel cut and put a door on it for my vessel sink?

[@CP-MakeItReal]

I'm sure this will work, but unfortunately I only build for my own use - a hobby. Sorry.

[@phillippennington]

What kind of screws did you use on the staves/straps?

[@CP-MakeItReal]

I have used standard wood screws 3,5mm x 20mm (galvanized)......many of them 😉

[@phillippennington]

Thanks. Would you recommend using an angle grinder to make the cuts over a plunge cut with a circular saw, and why?@@CP-MakeItReal

[@CP-MakeItReal]

I have seen videos were the cuts are made with a circular saw, but .... I was afraid that I would not achieve a horizontal cut in both axes with the circular saw. If you place the circular saw on the surface of the barrel, an sloping cut takes place. But I thought, if I cut freehand with the circular saw, the risk of jaming the saw blade is to high for me. Therefore my decision was to use an angle grinder with saw blade and the use of a guide. It worked great for me. But I think with appropriate caution, both variants work. Safety first!

[@phillippennington]

cp: make it real what blade/disc did you use on your angle grinder? I'm going to try this method next.

[@MrBonners]

@@phillippennington Is your hand steady enough? As you cut if the blade gets canted it will grab and kick, may shatter, scar up cut.

[@damiancarey528]

Hi just came across this video and loved it :) Can I ask how did you make the first cut in with the jigsaw at the top of the door :)

[@CP-MakeItReal]

Hi, thank you. I make the horizontal cuts with an angle grinder (with wood cutting blade >> 3:45 in video). I cut only the corners of the door with the jigsaw

[@mattypatch8891]

Will using pop rivets instead of screws to keep the hoops in place work? Asking for a friend ;)

[@CP-MakeItReal]

I don't know any commercially available blind rivets for this material thickness or material combination. Therefore I do not think that this is possible. ;-)

[@Thumper99TA]

What are the dimensions on the door?

[@CP-MakeItReal]

The door is ~50cm wide and ~65cm high.

So? Figure out alternate solutions/techniques or just don't do it.

[@MrBonners]

@@CP-MakeItReal Why? Let others figure out alternate designs and execution, plenty of other materials and techniques shown at the side panel >>>>>>>>> Don't spend time 'repairing' Bills of Materials, not broken, let them adjust to their capability, materials and tools on hand. You don't concern yourself with accommodating whiny lazy 'creators' that need everything handed to them. They actually don't need to be answered anyway. Their questions would indicate they won't build it anyway, they want to buy it at Walmart, particle board. Half the amusement of woodworking is coming up with an idea and figuring out how to do it. You just keep your ideas coming. It's always easier to find a excuse to not do something then a reason and effort to do something.
