First time poster here. My buddy and I brew our own craft beer but I wanted to transform my patio into a bar so we could have the bar experience without the bar tab. I'm naming the bar "Pipe Dreams", mostly in honor of my father who was a union plumber for 40 years, and after my inclination to chase crazy ideas like this one. Also a place to accommodate my occasional tobacco pipe smoking. The theme will basically be industrial, and if you'd like a link to my Pinterest album where I accumulate my inspiration, here you go. I'll post some pictures with progress as I chug along, mostly on my website. For the frame I just used construction grade 2x4's and I've built the counter and shelves with pallet wood. I found the sink in the dumpster a few years ago and have been saving it for a project like this. The plan is to skin it with old rusted corrugated metal roofing and trim it in pallet wood. Also I'm thinking I may build on a side frame to make it "L-shaped". Stay tuned! Big ideas ahead.

I'm attaching a few pictures to update those who are interested. Some include my kegerator build too! I attached a sideboard for snacks and food as well, no really good pictures of that though.
