How to place one element inside another

[christiannaEPJH9]

I am currently modeling a riddling rack for a wine cellar I am working on. I need to include champagne bottles in the rack but I can't figure out how to get the bottles to rest in the voids I have created. They are angled obviously so, it is proving to be a little frustrating. I am including the riddling rack file and any tips and tricks anyone might have, I welcome! I am fairly new to Revit and am having to teach myself a lot. Thank you.

I would create the void AND the bottle in a face based family, set the void to cut the host solid, not the bottle, then nest the family into your rack family and array.  Additionally, you can add a Y/N parameter to the bottle in the nested family so that you can turn it on or off in the rack family.

See attached family.  You can further refine it as you see fit, such as flip the bottle so that the cork is at the bottom 😉
