 I have begun a modest collection of hot sauces in 5 ounce bottles.  I would
 like to display the bottles on the wall, but I have had problems locating a
 shelf for this job.  Can anyone recommend a source or a design for such a
 shelf.
 
 Thanks for the help.

Len,

About a year ago I asked the same question, as I had at least 100 bottles that
I wanted to display.  I found a few places that sold them in Chilepepper
Magazine, but I didn't really like the way they looked, and they weren't big
enough for my purposes (porpoises?), so I went to Lowe's ( Home Depot or HQ
would have it also) and I bought the wood and small nails to make my own.  It
looks great and I have already filled this one up and need to make a larger
one.  If you like I can measure the wood and maybe send some pictures your
way.  I spent about $50 or $60 total on it and finished it in about 3 hours.
I'm not a cabinet maker by trade, so an amateur can do it.  You only need a
small saw, hammer, screwdriver and drill.  A vice makes it easier, but it
isn't essential.

Let me know if you want some measurements.
