Description
The concept is to repurpose and upcycle various glass bottles into a durable modular building material that can be assembled systematically and mounted horizontally and vertically to adjacent surfaces. There are five primary components in the system:
The "Brick" - this is a rectangular incomplete hexagonal array of cylindrical openings that can be stacked like bricks. They are designed so that when stacked additional openings are created to complete the hexagonal array.

The "Rings" - these are joint rings that serve two purposes: first they ring the outside of bottles of various sizes, second they join adjacent bricks into a contiguous wall. Each ring has a different internal diameter designed for different external bottle diameters. Measure your bottle and select the appropriate ring.
76 mm ring will fit most generic wine bottles (after removing the label).
85 mm is for large Tito's Vodka bottle

The "Plug" - this is a round joint blank that can be used to close a ring opening while joining bricks without the need for a bottle, which makes it possible to strategically create motifs.

The "3Link" - this is a half-ring joint for the top and bottom of bricks, with 3 built in screw mounting holes. Effectively this is a bracket that allows you to screw and hence secure the bricks to an adjacent surface.

The "2Link" - this is a half-ring joint for the sides of bricks, with 2 built in screw mounting holes. Effectively this is a bracket that allows you to screw and hence secure the bricks to an adjacent surface.
