More Pics...

 

Even more pics...

 

Only being able to post 5 pictures at a time sucks...

 

I hate it when my drills take a smoke break before the work is done!

 

This was the biggest project I've ever done...

 

Starting to get to the good stuff...

 

Yeah, what a tool!

 

Keezer rolls under TV cabinet...

 

LOL



More pics...

 

All wood is oak (plywood and solid)...

 

sub'd

 

Ceilings are very low in my basement, so decided to go with a dark color on the to try and draw your attention more horizontal towards the walls and not the low ceiling. Works well! Made the room look bigger!

 

Bar was made without any plans or drawings...

 

Those are 2 of the heaviest duty stripper poles I've ever seen.


Wish my living room looked half as good but I'm single with a 5 year old. I'm years from having anything nice again.

 

7 people can sit comfortably around the bar with plenty of elbow room and eating space...

 

Kegs kegs kegs!!!

:d

 

Some finish product pictures...

 

Lights above the bar are actually RED not PINK! Hate the way the pictures make them look...

 

LOVE spending time down here!!!

 

Very nice! but I'd lose the stupid Yankee print

 

Tv above the bar is 47" and Tv on the wall is 60" w/ an Onkyo Surround Sound Home Theater System

 

I've never uploaded this many pictures, sure did take a while! But this is the last of them! Hope everyone enjoys!!!

 

Very nice build!

One thing though, move that subwoofer away the wall and fireplace, thanks.

 

Nice job...thanks for sharing!

I'm green with envy.

 

Very nice! I want one! The only thing I would need different is to have about a thousand gallon fish tank in there someplace.

 

Holy freaking crap that's awesome!

 

Yeah? I thought it would be better in the corner to bounce off multiple walls?

 

Quite impressive. What a great finish all around!

 

The best place is likely a foot from any wall or large object (in this case the fireplace), but that depends on the size of the woofer and the room acoustics. Having it too close to the wall will cause it to boom and create some undesirable sound effects.

 

Everything was going great til that Yankees logo went on the wall...

 

Yes sir! I hope to one day have a man cave of that level of awesome.

 

So your having a party? I'm in . Build one like that in my basement and the Yankees would look like a sponsor!

 

Have had multiple parties and more to come!! The comment every person tends to say when they see it for the first time is "Holy **** this is like sitting at a real bar!!" lol

I've had people see pictures on facebook and ask what bar I was at last night

 

Why is there a laundry room in the man cave? Couldn't you put the washer and dryer upstairs in the kitchen so the SWMBO never has to leave the kitchen?

 

Did you insulate the basement walls? Very nice bar build.. working slowly on my own...

 

Very nice job! The bar area turned out great and I like the tip jar (you may as well get something for your efforts). Also, the painted fireplace was the right touch. That is a great way to take care of the old red brick.

 

When can you start on mine?

 

Very beautiful build!
