Hello @softwareburnout 

I didn't think it was possible, but you've made an amazing facsimile of Homer's ultimate gift to Marge. If I'm not mistaken this is actually much harder to make than an actual proper spice rack. 

Thank you so much for sharing such an amazing project.

Thanks @EricL (and well done for getting the reference too).  You are right, it took a lot longer to make, only 1 of those nails could even be considered slightly structural.

@softwareburnout  Love it!

Nice work and I really want to see this mounted in the kitchen!

Brilliant, you just cheered my afternoon up!

Thanks @Dave-1, it is actually a gift for an avid fan, so I'm really hoping a) they get the reference, and b) they find a good home for it!
