Title: Idelal 55 rack mod question Post by: wjheil on March 09, 2022, 10:32:14 am Hi,
I was wondering about the idea of taking my Ideal 55 rack to a machine shop and having the slots widened a bit to accommodate larger neck bottles. Has anyone tried this and would this be a reasonable approach approach? Opinions? Thanks, -Wayne Title: Re: Idelal 55 rack mod question Post by: johnieG on March 09, 2022, 07:35:02 pm probably would be cheaper to have it copied as opposed to modified, remove one row/slot & use some "T" shaped rails instead of the triangle pieces.
FYI.... there were some late-model A5 sliders that had can racks instead of bottle racks, Pat Pixley used to own one.

In reality it is probably not worth the effort to modify the rack. |
