You will want to get a bit slightly bigger than your rebar size you use. I don't remember the size I used. It's been a few years ago. I want to say I used 1/2 " rebar. I would have to find the bit I used to be sure the size in it. I'm sorry
It’s beautiful, thank you for giving such great directions. I’ve been watching videos for a few hours. And hands down yours is the best for directions. And the tips where to get the bottles was super helpful too! I’m planning on making my chicken coop and an outside kitchen using wine bottles and jars. I only got the jar idea from a video on UA-cam. I love what I saw of your porch, bar and the rest. I love the rustic look and the bottles work so well.
Your diamond bit on your drill press would need to be bigger than 3/8" in order to fit your 1/2" rebar through the bottle. Is the bit 5/8" rather than 3/8"???
Thank you so much for this video; it's been very helpful for our projects. The hose rings and the drilling 4x4 was particularly helpful. Question: how did you manage to take the wine bottle labels off?
I am so glad it has been helpful. I would soak a sink full of bottles in the sink in dawn dishsoap and the hottest water you can get. Most of the labels come right off. If they stick I would take a steel pad and scrub them. That part is the most time consuming
Watch your speed to fast will generate heat. I drill mine at a low speed,500 to 1000 r p m. Less heat less chance of breaking the bottle and the bit will last longer.
Thank you so much!! This was so helpful!!! I love your independence!
Wow thank you for all the great tips, your place is beautiful! 🥰
You’re welcome 😊

Looks cool. Bit sizes?

What a beautiful porch! Very inspirational!
Great instructions! And it's so beautiful. I've been collecting bottles for a while so hopefully I'll get on it soon.....

Great video! Thank you for posting! I cannot wait to get mine up.
Thank you for the informative video! It has been extremely helpful.
Thank you! Gonna try youe method! BTW the indentation on the bottom of the wine bottle is called a PUNT 😁
THANK YOU! I had bottles with flat bottoms and couldn't get holes with the drill.

Thanks for this incredible video. You explained it well and I'm so excited to start my project. BTW how hard is it to cut rebar?
i just used a batttery grinder with a cutting wheel. make sure you use safety glasses and gloves
I'm thinking of having my wall at a 45 degree angel, would you recommend and variation to the vertical all application? Thanking you :)
I think that's a great idea. You would just have to drill your holes in the wood you are attaching your rebar too at an angle
Are you still active here? Would love to pick your brain.
