Bottle Stopper Kits
Page 1 of 2
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 can ship 30 Deluxe
stoppers by Priority Mail for $4.75 or 100 Deluxe stoppers by
Priority Mail for $10.20, or 140 stoppers for $13.95 (two to three day delivery). Shipping
charges can add a significant cost to your purchase and we do
everything we can in order to keep your shipping costs low.
Insured shipments cost extra. |

Sorry, but stoppers are not
yet available for beer cans :>)) |

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 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! |

Adjustable Stainless Steel & Chrome
Bottle Stopper

Pictured with one of Ed Davidson's
silver butterfly 3D bottle stopper blocks
| 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. |

Stainless steel is
the best and most affordable material to construct the base
of a bottle stopper. This material will stand up to
anything that can be consumed by a human being. Anyone
who makes stoppers looses control on how their pieces
are used once they leave their shop. Some people will
use a regular chrome or copper stopper they purchased with a
liquid material that is corrosive in nature and, after long
exposure, may eventually cause the plating to flake or
corrode (wine vinegars are a perfect example) . The
stainless steel may discolor depending on what atmosphere
they may be exposed to but they will not fail. When you sell one of our SST stoppers you
don't have to worry about it coming back to you unless the
top material has somehow failed.
The higher placement of the black silicone wedge provides a
more balanced look to this design and the high polish adds a
touch of class. The hobbyist also has the
option of altering the finish of this stopper. These
stoppers can be glass-beaded for a satin finish and they
can be jeweled without
having to worry about working through any plating since
there isn't any plating. |

Machined from one solid piece of 304 Stainless steel bar
stock, these little beauties are made right here in the United
States. They come with the same reliable & long lasting black
silicone rubber wedge seal found on all of the stoppers we carry in
this style (the seals are pre-installed by us and you don't have to
worry about them breaking). This one piece unit comes with the
tenon cut with the same 3/8"-16 threads as our other black silicone
wedge stoppers. The threaded Tenon is not
removable.
The Mini-Stoppers have an overall length of 2 11/32"
(including the threaded tenon). Top of flat base to the
pointed tip measures approximately 1 7/8" long and the base diameter
measures approximately .734".
As you can see in the picture below the Mini-Stopper
fits lower in a bottle with a smaller opening. Keep in mind that the
inside hole diameter of wine bottles vary as much as the selection
of candy bars at your local market. There is no industry
standard for the inside diameter of wine bottles. |

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-464, -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 BHW-464, -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 $3.95 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. |

Making A Bottle
Stopper
|
Compiled and

"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 # 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. |
