My Bar

looking dayum good!!!

and yes, code blues beer was good…im still alive! ;D

so what night is open bar to all members???

^^^ hell yeah. looks pretty damn sweet. hopefully someday i can get myself a setup like that.

damn dude thats sick

Very impressive.

Future plans?

:+1 on the open night to members ;D (5$ at the door :lol)

build the bar back. Mirrored center with lighted liquor bottle display. Shelves on the side for beer glass storage. Cabinets on the bottom for more liquor and stuff.

then get a 40inch LCD and mount it on the wall over the love seat… it’ll be all complete then

If I get to know you guys then I will absolutely invite you over, but a mass invite to a bunch of people I barely know on a car forum is not going to happen, hahah

your plans sound like it gonna be off the hook when its done. :wow

not inviting us over BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :wtf

I hear ya, but if the turnout to your bar would be similar to the turnout to any other even posted here, it wouldn’t be that bad :lol

Do you blueprint anything? Sketch it out? Photoshop or just play it by ear?

It’s because you’re a BMW guy :tong

my former roommate bought plans from barplan.com and I modified them sons of bitches a lot.

I do not have a history of handy work or construction in my family, so sketching it out myself wasn’t really an option. I can follow directions really well and I am a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to this crap. This was the first thing that I’ve ever made, HA!

it’s not fair to compare a gathering at the local lot with a event that would have an endless supply of beer

thats quite nice. looks like a good mancave, heheh. did u buy the bar in one piece or were u putting it together from pieces youve cut?

put it together from scratch. Bought raw wood… cut, stain, clear, attach

very nice! do you use a silicone type stain on it so moisture doesnt get in or can u just use normal wood stain?

wood stain with many many coats of clear

can u slide a tall glass across it like the movies? :slight_smile:

yes, but it’s damn near impossible to do it while it’s full of beer without spilling it everywhere. I don’t know how they do it in the commercials.

they buff and wax the table

I used Tech 2 Wax :lol on my buddies bar top for him when I did his bar top for him… Glasses slide reallll nice on it.

yep. Used to work at a friends irish pub and I would wax the bar every other night. that thing was in the best shape EVER

there isn’t a single scratch in the bar top… buff and waxing it that often is def overkill IMO. I’ve never seen a bar in pristine condition and thats cool with me… it’s a bar! it’s full of drunk losers, shit happens

ah yes my favorite spot to drink i’ve gotten drunk there more times than i can count on my fingers and toes lol
