This invention relates to@ tumbler racksv'fand f `similar articles, and has to do particularlywith vimprovements in the constructionofwire tumbler r one ofthe msm. Objects or the invention-1Mo vide a tumbler rack of simplel and' inexpensive construction and of pleasing appearance; also,
a rack composed otrelatively few parts adapted 'for convenient assembly, andan improvedmeth` vod of making racks of thecharacter descrimed.H

The base, which Adetermines the. shape of .the raclgis 'shown of 40 round or 'circular form, but it is tobe understood vthat it may be of square, rectangular, octagonal,
or of any other suitable or preferred forml; f
The individual tumbler or glass holders I2 areI formedof wire o f suitable gauge and, Ain the hat,
45 are of generally U-shaped form',` with the con-V necting portions betWe'eni the. legs of the U rounded at I4, although this, of course,-may vary. The ends I5 and I6 of thewire base rings I0' and I I are preferably not welded orotherwise secured together, but are merely ,brought into abutting relation, being held together by the tumblerv or glass holders, although'this, tooQmay Vary. r
' In forming the rack, the Wire base rings I0 and I I. are placed, for example, in -a jig in thedesired concentric relation. The jig is lpreferably grooved "olaims'l.` (ci. 2li-+74); y ror formedj to receive and hold the rings III and li inthe desired relation, andis alsopreferably groovedr orfiormed to receive and hold in the dat the generally U- shaped tumbler holders I2 with the free endsA VI8 of the legs thereof extending 5 across and disposed on the' .rings I andI'I as shown in Figurey 3a vThe free ends i8 of the legs of the holders i2 are'shoWn asvbrought closer together than the .outer portions of the legs of the holders, which` is preferable, although vtliispl() mayvary.' -A Thenywith all of the holders I2- in position upon the base rings I0 and llas shown in Figure 3, the free'ends' I8 of the legs of the holders I2y are welded to the'wirerings I0 and I I at 20.; The 15 welding oi `all of 'thelholders tothe base o'flt'he track at ythe pointsl `209is`preferably accomplished by ay single.

The lower `ends ofthe ,frontxmembers 26 pref-v ticular shapes or designs of the front forming y members 25 and 26, as shown in the drawings,
are merely illustrative, and that front forming members of other shapes or design are contemplated within the scope of the present invention.
Where the rack is squara'rectangular, Octagonal, or of other polygonal form, the glass hold- 'ers.|2 will be arranged along .and'securedfto the flat sides of the base, and in the case, for instance, of an o val or other form ofrack, thev qholders will be appropriately arranged about and secured to the base thereof. 4 l
The wire handle 40 has a generally looped handle part disposed above the axis of the rack, and the diverging lower ends of the intersecting portions of the handle extend` out laterally at 4i.. The outer ends *ofl these laterally extending portions 4I are bent to extend down vertically at 42 betweenfa pair of holders IZ at diametrioallyopposite sides 4of the rack. The lower ends `ofl the vertically extending handle portions 42 areI turned out laterally at d3 beneathfth'e wire base rings I0 and il, and are weldedto the wire base ringsat 45.
