Wine Paraphenalia, Old and New

Kindling perhaps?

The couple I have are untreated so would be ok in the WFO

I have a selection of the labelled panels from wooden boxes I have accumulated over the years. My plan is to create a "mosaic" of these to form a "back drop" to my bar. Which is actually a built in counter with cupboards under.
This old photo from before the bar top was installed shows the area to be covered.



My thought was to measure up a sheet of plywood to fit, remove / conceal the power points and glue or screw from behind the different labeled box sides and ends to the ply. Trimming the box ends where necessary.

That would look good - I don't think you would need screws / nails - an adhesive would suffice

Yep. I just need to find someone with carpentry skills to supervise me ( lol )

You could use MDF instead of plywood. It's cheaper and as you wouldn't see it because of the panels, makes it a good choice. (LDF would better as its lighter but I've never seen it in Aus). It would need to be properly sealed so as not to soak up any liquid that might spill (MDF is a sponge).
As Steady has said, an adhesive would suffice for this project.

Are you still wanting access to the outlets? You could create a concealed cover with one panel (depending on wide it is).
Cut out a rectangle in the MDF slightly smaller than the panel, then countersink in the four corners of the panel and glue in four button magnets, then on the MDF, do the same (make sure they are the opposite polarity!), or use a small piece of steel. Attach a small knob or something on the outside so you can remove the panel.

You could use something wine related like a waiters friend for the handle.
