Sorry, was out of town. Yeah, we use it quite a bit.. haven't had any problems. I can't find a name on the fan.. did you purchase yours from McMaster as well?

No, somewhere on ebay.

This whole thing is just the Cat's Ass. You have given me a lot of ideas and something to work towards. Very, very cool

Well, just know that most of the taps- at least initially- will be commercial. Hell, I'll probably always have Bud Light on tap just to appease the women folk in my area.

Ha Yep, Gotta keep the woman folk happy

I totally understand that.

The wood sounds great, can't wait to see it. A few years back we shipped out of Baltimore a whole building of re-claimed lumber from an old seafood / canning company downtown in the Canton area (early 1900's). It was really cool old wood. Old nails and branded in lots of places. It ended up going to Long Island for a bar project. It tuned out awesome.

Looking forward to see this project finish up so you can brew your stuff!

Thanks. One more question if I could bother you, does it spin cw or ccw? I may be able to just replace the motor without pulling the whole works out of the wall. They sell two of the exact same motor, and with my luck, i'd buy the one that would blow outside air back in my face.

EDIT Never mind, I bought a motor for it this morning. Thanks.

Here is my other side project I've been working.. a 'real' arcade cabinet with a full MAME set.

onelegout · Sep 28, 2010

That's great! Did you build the cabinet yourself? I've always wanted to build a real mame machine

John Beere · Sep 28, 2010

I cheated and just bought an X-Arcade cabinet.. but just the cabinet. Still building out the PC and everything else.

bendavanza · Sep 28, 2010

MAME is fun. if you have a good source for working ROMS please share.

Here are the first photos of the bar.. it is coming along. They think it will be ready in about 2 weeks or so.

That is the entertainment cabinet standing behind it:

Here is an up-close shot of the cabinet doors. He is saving the wood with the most 'character' for the front of the bar and entertainment center:

And here is a shot of some of the unfinished heart pine just laid out next to each other:

I don't get jealous often, but that is just too sweet!

John Beere · Oct 10, 2010

A little progress- I got the kegerator all wired up last weekend and been running it for the last week to test.. was able to just re-purpose the original wiring to an old Love controller I had.

John Beere · Oct 11, 2010

My cabinet man just sent me some updated photos.. it still very much 'under construction' though.

leboeuf · Oct 11, 2010

Truly beautiful!
Looks like they do great work.

John Beere · Oct 12, 2010

Couple more photos he just sent me.. looks like he has the top on. What do you guys think of the rough finish?

klyph · Oct 12, 2010

That is amazing. Love the rustic look.

TwoHeadsBrewing · Oct 12, 2010

Thumbs up on the rough finish! I think it goes well with the paneling and will add a bit of character to the "newness" of the rest of your space.

Tinga · Oct 12, 2010

thats about 3 LEED points you got there. might as well go and get the rest of them for LEED certification.

celticcolorado · Oct 12, 2010

Looks amazing, I love the rough finish. I can't wait to see it completed. Sooo jealous right now. I will have to wait for my next house to do something like this. I don't have the room.

John Beere · Oct 12, 2010

I'm driving out there tomorrow morning to look at it all.. he said the photos don't do it justice. Can't wait to see it after it has been varnished, but that will be in another week or so.

BrewBeemer · Oct 12, 2010

Brass foot rail is a must.

akthor · Oct 13, 2010

My buddy has a rough top bar like that, splinters are an issue since it is unfinished. Can't tell if yours is or not.

Foot rail/rest of some kind is a must I HATE sitting at bars without them/

Might make it hard to clean.

John Beere · Oct 13, 2010

Went to check it out this morning.. it looks great and exactly what I was hoping for- precision, yet rustic. The top is sanded just enough to not have splinters.. might be a slight problem in a few places but won't be an issue overall. I'm looking into bar rails- kinda wanted something rustic or different. I remember seeing someone online who made custom bar rails out of heavy twisted wire which might look cool.

Overall, I'm very happy with it. It is going to look so different in my bar- it is huge! But not so big it won't fit in..

JetSmooth · Oct 13, 2010

What about iron pipe with a little faux-rusty paint finish?

John Beere · Oct 13, 2010

Think I'm going to contact these guys..

HOLY CRAP! I want!!!!!

BrewBeemer · Oct 13, 2010

Wow only $185 a foot for twisted stock, they're about giving it away ya think? Not! Nothing a rosebud, stock and two people can't do, JMO.

ScrapHeap2000 · Oct 14, 2010

This place is really great and they have a lot of different things you may be able to incorporate for your rail:

Here's a page with some forged bars, may work for you. We use them here at work when we need casting crap for railing or fencing.

Hope it helps.

chrislehr · Oct 14, 2010

I was at a bar the other day that had the footrail made from 1" rebar, bent and molded to look nice. Might be a nice touch to the existing rustic look.
