Description

If you’re looking for a woodworking project people will love that you can make in a hurry from scrap, this Posthaste Project is it. Grab a chunk from your scrap bin, bore a few holes, do a little routing, mount the hardware and you’ll have something really catchy. (That’ll make more sense when you see the project.)

It’s SOOO easy
You may have seen a magnetic bottle opener with cap catcher in stores or online, and tried to figure out how to make one for yourself. What size magnet? Where do you place the magnet? Where do you get the hardware? No sweat, we have you covered. This instructional video is short, but it has every bit of information you need for this woodworking project.

Change it up
The only thing that’s really critical is the relationship between the opener and the magnet. So, be creative! Use your bandsaw and cut the backer in the shape of a bottle. Carve someone’s name into the backer. There are lots of options for personalizing your magnetic bottle opener with cap catcher.
