ok heres what I have so far. Its not done yet. I used some new techniques that I had problems with and my finish nail gun wasnt working, what a pain to nail old school style into Maple, even after predrilling
Sully--looks great. Do you have any pics of the underside? Also, how did you bolt yours down ?
Not Sully, but I didn't bolt mine down. It's very solid as is. if you have a good base and your top is not too top-heavy it's probably Ok. If you have small kids, then that's a different story.

Any updates on this Bar build? looks kind of like mine, except for the ledge around the top. i like that feature, on mine, if someone spills something it could go all over my head and on the chairs.
I saw this cool one at a Best Buy near me, I don't think they even sell it, there was no price tag on it, wasnt anyone around to ask. I think I will try and build something like it. The top had lights inside so it glowed (you could turn them off.

Looks nice, maybe a little low for standard bar height. what was the top made out of?

Its acrylic (like Plexiglas). I found a local supplier that has milky or sign acrylic in various sizes that would work. This one was 40" high, 84" long.
