Or a drinking problem can lead you to building a bar....that can lead to a drinking problem
Bar looks great. I just have one question since I've never built a bar before. Why is there two pieces in this small section?View attachment 23883

Just some pics of custom bar we built
Thanks AJAX! You're right ... it's got glass inserts in it. The customer wanted those to be permanent so spills wouldn't go into the boxes, so we siliconed them in place. We put access doors on the front or back of each cell/box, and used some nice decorative handles on them ... looks great and gives them a way to easily put their stuff in there for display. They were going to put small lights in each cell and turn it into a shadow box type of thing to display their collectibles and memorabilia ... not sure if they ever did or not. We ended up going back later and building them a matching overhead top with recessed lights, custom wine rack and built-in speakers. It looks every bit as nice as the bar. Put some brass rails on the side and foot steps. It looks nice.Looks great!, nice carpentry work!
I assume there is going to be glass inset so ya can put memorabilia and stuff in the spaces to see. We have a coffee table like that. Only problem is you NEVER want to spill anything on there it will immediately make a mess of everything. Liquids will make there way right around the glass into that space. Makes a real mess.
Anyway, I wish I still had customer like that, "whatever you decide". Nice:thumbsup:Thanks AJAX! You're right ... it's got glass inserts in it.

We were doing a full-home remodel for this particular customer and they wanted us to build a bar for them ... they told us they wanted something unique, no matter how much it cost. They went on vacation to Myrtle Beach for a week and when they came back this was at home waiting for them. They had no idea what it'd look like ... they were floored when they saw it and said they never expected something that nice. Made us feel pretty good.
Straightline is my brother ... I hate to admit it. Don't tell anybody! :whistlingWait..I'm confused:confused1: I thought Straightline started this thread?

Gotcha. Looks great! Make sure you post pics with the glass.The two pieces in the area shown is there because this allows acces to the display area the area tapers down to small in the back to allow for access door..
