Bar kick/step.

[Reverend JC]

Should i add one of those bar kick/steps to the bottom of the bar? IF i did i was thinking it should be about 8" tall as the bar is 48" tall.

Yeah or Nah?

 

[rdwj]

Yes - for sure! You need a a place to set your foot

Are the rungs on a bar stool not enough?

I ask this just to clarify, i have not made up my mind on the matter just yet.

Different people, of different heights, need different options. I mean, whatever you've got, I'm sure, will be fine for an hour or so... but if you're expecting longer stints than that, then a variety of foot positions are crucial to reducing the risk of deep-vein thrombosis.

Yes. I take my drinking very seriously. :cross:

 

[drunken clown]

personly i like the foot rail! but on the 8' bar in my basement we have a foot rail on one side and nothing on the other! we have loged in many, many blury beer drinking hours down their and i have never heard any complaints at all! this goes for women and men alike! i think if their is beer at your bar, your golden! its all on you!

 

[Dude]

I would definitley put the step there.

 

[dibby33]

Yeup. Good excerise as you need to change which foot is on it. Like a slow motion step class

 

[olllllo]

Put one in.
Measurement?

I'll try to bring a tape with me nect time I pass out at a bar.


I think Fiery posted some achitectural drawings of a bar with schematics for the step.

 

[sause]

Yeah, taller people kind of like having a rail or step. I don't know if shorter people do since I am not short in any pretense. Also if you plan on and people to stand by the bar definitely, the step/rail will give them less back pain. There was always a rail on old saloons bars and that was because putting a foot up on the rail allows you to stand there for a long period of time with out being uncomfortable.

I'm not sure about the pain thing, but I usually stand by the bar since I sit all day at work. The rail is really nice for that.

wired how england an america are so different

Hey man, go for broke and buy a nice 3" Copper (or brass) pipe and polish it! Then do some Copper accents?

Forget the rail, you need one of these:

Nothing like a piss trough to make a guy feel at home. Just keep those brews coming. No need for useless bathroom breaks! It also solves the problem of those friends who want a Bud.

I have been in old bars that actually have variations of these things on their bars. The San Francisco Brewery has a nice tiled one built into the floor.

That would made your bar a thing to remember.

I can't decide if that's the greatest or worst idea ever
