You know, I've been having so much fun filling my wine cellar with lots of fun stuff, and then I had this terrible thought....

what happens if a decent size quake hits??? The majority of my cellar is diagonal bins. Does anyone know of any product that had been devised/invented to keep bottles from bouncing out of the bins in the event of a quake?

I realize if the big one hits there is nothing we can do but if an average one hits (and it will), THE WINE MUST BE PROTECTED. any ideas?

Hi MR. Some friends of mine in SF put a 20* slant on their bins from front to back. Both have gone thru several 5 richter dudies without any problems.WW
