i bought one as its handy for plastic bottles but i used it once then decided to collect bulmers bottles which just require a wash in dishwasher then straight onto bottling, mind u will have to sanitise it aswell which is a pain in the erse

Anyone made their own?

Not a tree, but I have a set of holesaws which cost not a lot from Netto, a set of Forstner bits which cost very little from Screwfix, and a piece of chipboard which cost SFA from my place of employment.

Put them together and I now have a board which fits over our utility sink, which has seventeen 30-35mm diameter holes in it. How many holes you can cut will vary according to the dimensions of your sink and average bottle diameter.

Bottles are washed/disinfected/rinsed then dropped neck first through a hole and left to drain.

Ah Moley thanks, I remember you posting that now; I have holesaws so I have another project ahead :thumb:

I did the same sort of thing as Moley but got fancy and ran a router with a half moon bit around each hole as well
