Here’s a nifty project I came across on social media that’s fairly easy to do and really cool. Its basically a wall mounted bottle opener that features embedded magnets which catch falling bottle caps when you open a bottle.
What You Need
- 75mm x 300mm piece of wood
- 2-inch (50mm) Forstner drill bit
- Table clamp
- 2-inch round magnets
- Industrial glue
- Bottle opener wall attachment
How To Make It
- Secure the end of a 3 x 12 inch plank to the edge of a table.
- Use the drill bit to make two depressions in the wood, about 1/2 an inch apart. They should be just deep enough to fit the magnet which is a little over an inch thick.
- Remove the wood from the clamp. Coat the bottom of the magnets with industrial glue and fit it in the depression.
- Mount your bottle opener on the wall with screws or with removable adhesive strips that can hold at least 9 pounds.
- Pop the cap off your bottle and the magnet will catch the cap.
