Stain.
Cut 2 1x3's to a length of 18 inches and 2 more to a length of 28 inches. The 18 inch boards make
up the sides and the 28 inch boards make up the upper and lower shelves. On the side boards cut an
arc at the top and bottom that extends 3 inches from the edge and halfway across the board at the
bottom. Router a rounded edge on the front of all four boards. Router a 1/4" groove 1/8" deep in
the 28" boards leaving 2" from both ends un grooved. This groove helps hold the plates in place.
A slot the thickness of the boards, was cut into each 28" board 2" from each end and 4" from each
end of the 18 inch boards. The shelves were joined at the slots to the side boards with the groove
side up and fastened at the slotted joints with a number 10 wooden screw 2" long. The screws were
recessed about 1/4" into the slotted joints.
The rack was then finished with a several coats of golden oak stain.
