My daughter was married 10 years ago this month. We served a Côte du Rhône red wine at the reception. I saved a couple of bottles and one of the wine cases. They have lived in my basement all these years. I've been eyeing the case for a while and I decided to do something with it for their anniversary this week. Here is the result:

Nice. I would only add automatic electronic latching and automatic electronic remote opening/closing of the cabinet.
Add those two features and it would be perfect.

Nice work, Hank!

That will be a treasured possession, well done!
I started with absolutely nothing. Now, thanks to years of hard work, careful planning, and perseverance, I find I still have most of it left.
