Bottle Stopper Kits and Bottle Stopper Display Stands
 
Bottle stopper kits do not include the material for the top piece.

Bottle stoppers have been around since man discovered that liquids can and will spill out of a container if there is nothing there to prevent it.  Stoppers can be used for their intended purpose or can be used as decorations.  Many people collect wood from all over the world in the form of stoppers, they make excellent gifts and are very easy to make. 

When comparing prices please be aware that we sell only sell bottle stopper kits made in Taiwan. 
A special note:
If you are selling your stoppers I highly recommend that you use the stainless steel model.  It is a little more expensive than some of the other models but you will never have to worry about a customer bringing back the stopper to you because of corrosion problems.

The black silicone wedge stoppers are designed and formulated to seal bottles of wine.  We cannot guarantee the performance of the black silicone wedge seal should the bottle stopper kits we sell, supplied with the black silicone wedge seal,  be used in bottles containing other types of liquids.

The stainless steel stoppers are the only stoppers we guarantee against any form of corrosion caused by any liquid that can be safely consumed by human beings.  When in doubt use stainless steel!

BHW-473   Adjustable Stainless Steel & Chrome Bottle Stopper
These stoppers are made & plated in Taiwan and not in China.
Adjustable Bottle Stopper Kit Instructions PDF

We have an adjustable bottle stopper that will fit numerous bottles as well as having the added benefit of being constructed out of 304 stainless steel and chrome.  The flat washer and screw that are exposed to corrosive elements are made of Type 304 stainless steel.  The gaskets are made from food grade silicone rubber.  This stopper also has our standard 3/8"-16 threads so it is compatible with all of our mandrels, buffing handles, etc.

This stopper is unique in that it adapts itself to the inside neck opening of typical wine bottles.  The various adjustment results in tightening the top piece of the stopper.  In other words, as you tighten the stopper (turning clockwise) the soft silicone gaskets expand thus sealing the bottle.  Turning the stopper top counter-clockwise will reduce the size of the soft silicone gaskets allowing the stopper to be removed from the bottle.

Tooling to make the creation of these stoppers a little bit easier.....

One-piece #1 Morse Taper and #2 Morse Taper Bottle Stopper Mandrels
We now offer two bottle stopper mandrels manufactured from one solid piece of 304 stainless steel.  These mandrels will work on all of the bottle stoppers we carry that have a 3/8"-16 threads ( BHW-465, -466, -467, -470, -471, -472 and -473 series stoppers).  You do not need a three- jawed chuck or a Jacobs chuck to utilize these new mandrels.  Just install in the headstock of your lathe and away you go.

These mandrels are made with a Number 1 and a Number 2 Morse taper and both have 3/8"-16 threads.  Each mandrel also has a 1/4"-20 threaded hole in the tail to allow for the use of a drawbar.  Here is a short video produced by Ed Davidson on how to make and use a drawbar:  Morse Taper Bottle Stopper Mandrels .

These mandrels utilize the two different sizing bushings that are used for the AZSBS-463, AZSBS-464, BHW-465, -468, -471, -472 and -473  series stoppers.  Each mandrel is sold separately and you will need to order the correct sizing bushing for the bottle stopper you wish to make.  Order both size sizing bushings and you are all set for both diameters.

We recommend that you use the 3/8"-16 Norseman Bottom Tap $7.95 as well as the 5/16" Norseman Drill Bit $4.49 to make it easier to mount the material used for the bottle stopper handle onto the mandrels.

Bottle Stopper Buffing Handle


 
 
Have you ever had the sad experience of having a finished bottle stopper blank get 'caught & thrown' by a buffing wheel?  Using our Delrin handle will give you a much more secure way of buffing the stoppers and not having to worry about dodging a run-a-way stopper block.  The handle is 7" long and comes complete with two Delrin bushings for shallow or deep 3/8"-16 threads. This handle will work with the BHW-464, -465, -466, -467, -469, -470, -471, -472 and the BHW-473 series stoppers.

 Berea Hardwoods Premium Bottle Stopper Kits

We supply an additional plating of Berea's classy premium bottle stopper - gold titanium.  The all chrome stoppers have been available for some time and we wanted to do something different with them and we believe we have.  The rich gold titanium plating is highlighted by the whiteness of the "O" rings and, as you can see in the pictures below, they really are exceptional.  The long lasting titanium plating over the solid brass body gives these stoppers a feel not offered by other stoppers.  Each stopper weighs approximately 3 1/2 ounces. These are perfect for that special piece of wood that you've been holding back to use on that 'special project'.

 The BHW-450 All-Chrome Bottle Stopper
These stoppers are made & plated in Taiwan and not in China.

Making A Bottle Stopper
Compiled and photographed by Ed Davidson
"Mr. Bottle Stopper"
 

Here are five different methods to chuck a bottle stopper blank on your lathe. There are probably several more, but these are the one's I'm most familiar with.

 
Method # 1...my favorite, with chrome cone style stopper base: Blank is mounted using Arizona Silhouette's hefty mandrel in a drill chuck on the headstock. The blank was drilled with a 23/64" bit.

Method # 2...chrome cone style stopper base, using PSI's 1" x 8tpi chuck mounted on the headstock. The blank was drilled with a 11/32" bit.

Method # 3...Chrome cone style stopper base: Blank is mounted onto a worm-screw that comes with all Nova "scroll chucks". The blank was drilled with a 3/8" bit.

Method # 4...Berea All-Chrome stopper base: Blank is mounted using Arizona Silhouette's little mandrel in a drill chuck on the headstock. The blank was drilled with a 6mm or 15/64" bit

Method # 5...My least favorite. Chrome cone style stopper base: Blank is mounted using a 3/8" metal rod about 2" long, in a Nova scroll chuck. Note the nail that's used to wedge the blank onto the chuck. The blank hole is drilled with a 3/8" bit.
