    Here are a picture of the 5 bar stools.

    My ongoing basement bar build

    For Christmas I got 5 sweet bar stools. No backs on them. The barstools should be fine as the foot rest will stick out about the same distance as the corbals.

    Is everything ok here?

    Yes. Sit back relax and have a hombrew

    Is everything ok here?

    This fermentation has been different than the first 20 beers I have done... There where big gross bubbles like I have never seen before. 6 days later it isn't settling back into the beer at all. Is everything ok? Should I just SBRAHAHB.. That acronym doesn't look right....

    Sorry, but I haven't done any work on the bar in the last couple weeks. I need to buy more trim and I can't decide on the Corbals to use... I am also worried any Corbals would look funny because I can't put corbals on the chest freezer size of the bar... I will update you in the next week or...

    Yes by the foot pad I meant the bottom part of the bar where you put your foot. I didn't know what else to call it and that sounded fairly appropriate.. I kind of like the brass pipe, but I feel like all bars have that and I wanted to do something different and that brass pipe is really...

    My ongoing basement bar build

    Progress is coming along again after a couple weeks off.. I spent countless hours over the last two weeks thinking and designing the trim on the front of my bar. After bugging my wife for two weeks for her opinion (she repeatably says "Whatever you want", which is really the best answer but I...

    My ongoing basement bar build

    It is coming together nicely. I ended up buying the kenmore 8.8 from from Sears because it wasn't as deep as some other chest freezers. Four kegs (almost 5) easily fit inside the 7.2' CF chest freezers is just too tight. So I have four kegs on the floor and a 22 CF nitrogen tank and 10# co2...

    I'm building a home bar with 4 draft lines, how can I chill my kegs?

    I don't know the layout of your bar, but I had the similar problems to overcome. I wanted a bar that could chill my beer, but I didn't want to see the keezer. So I custom built a bar around a new chest freezer. Part of the bar lifts up displaying a goodies inside the chest freezer. Here is...

    Wooden Beer Crates

    Very impressive. You can't find quality like that any more. By the way there is nothing better than Titebond II and beer.

    Is there any chance my Tee tower would sweat and ruin my nice wood bar top finish?

    My ongoing basement bar build

    We have the space out here in Fairfax Station, but you have the good restaurants... serious questions though. I need some suggestions from the kegging experts. I can't decide on the best way to keep my beer lines cool in my tower. I have two options that both have their pro's and con's but...

    quick question. With this setup I have to have the co2 tank inside the freezer. Is that a problem?

    Thanks RMS and Chrisl77. Unfortunately, I started on the staining and varnish coat before I had a chance to read your posts. But, RMS, I used that exact same spar urethane you suggested. It looks amazing. I sanded, cleaned, pre stained, stained and put down the spar urethane. First time...

    All the wood so far has cost about $1,200. Taps, chest freezer, 4 faucets line, CO2 tanks, and future trim should put the final bill around $3,000.

    That type of bar rail is called Chicago bar rail and you can get it from most major lumber yards, at least in Northern Virginia. I got it from a local company called smoot lumber. But Tart lumber also has it in stock. It was only $13 a foot which seemed really cheap considering the plywood...

    Yes I will be putting in a Tee tower that I had custom made. (you can see it in the backround)

    It is coming together. Any questions from the crowd?
