I agree that the oak backdrop is not ideal. If I was building the shelf myself from scratch, I wouldn't have that board that is in back of the bottles, I'd go with bare wall.

Now that's living dangerously...! You could paint it white... That would let the colors show better... I'd be hard pressed to hang bottles like that though... A strong fart could destroy your collection!

I think those torpedoes look a bit tense..... I think I would be tense also if I was just hanging around like that. I think torpedoes look best when displayed in a more relaxed setting. In a nice safe cradle where they don't have to worry about rolling away or falling over.

Love those cradles and they do look pretty relaxed.[;)]
