Visit my Etsy store to see the available wine bottle stoppers
Project Description
This segemented stopper is my thirteenth completed project in my June 2009 “30 Projects in 30 Days” challenge. Building these stoppers has been a lot of fun for me. Each design element allows for a number of alternatives by using different species of wood. This stopper is made with my patchwork pattern and includes a stainless steel droplet stopper.
Considering that each stopper takes several hours to build and turn, I take great joy in knowing that no two stoppers are the same.
Stopper Stats:- Total pieces: 121
- Primary Wood: Red Leaf Maple
- Secondary Woods: Cherry, Walnut and Jatoba
- Cap: Sapele
- Dimensions: 2-1/8” tall, 1” diameter
- Finish: CA/BLO
Other segmented wine bottle stoppers I have created and posted here at Lumberjocks

Russel, I would have never in my life classified myself as a person with patience. But for some reason, I find working on these segmentation projects very relaxing.
and Gary, I’m having a blast!

Beautiful work Darryl. It might be an idea to show at least one whole stopper in your store pictures to give your customers a better idea of scale. Here I am giving unasked for advice again. Sorry, I can’t help myself.
