HB-003 Wet Bar
HB-003 ...Tom, here are some photos. This bar is outside so I had to make it weather proof. The tongue & groove is vinyl and the rest is tumbled marble. With your plans the hardest part was cutting the wood. It went together pretty easy. I used pressure treated lumber because of the Florida humidity and then I sealed it with Thompson's water seal and then the Helmsman Spar Urthane, just to make sure it was sealed. I have never built anything in my life and I had to borrow all the tools, so that tells you how non-mechanically inclined I am. Now my friends want me to build them a bar by their pools as well. Thanks again for the easy to use instructions. Mike

Modifications made to the plans include:
 The top overhang was eliminated where the end of the bar meets the wall.
 The base was assembled opposite to the standard layout.
 The front panels were continued along the walls to provide a custom appearance More Info

HB-003 ..."First off let me start by stating that I have never done an ounce of woodwork in my life, but with your plans it was so incredibly easy. Even after making a few adjustments for length and adding some drawers, the plans made the purchasing a snap at Home Depot with very little waste. And since I am not one who likes to read directions (hey, I'm a guy - I like pictures) the diagrams made it so simple to build. Even my wife was impressed! So thank you very much and feel free to use me as a reference anytime. Thanks, John W., St. Michael, MN"

HB-003 ..."Easy plans to follow. Some adjustments were made to the original plans to reduce the size of the bar. But with a few creative ideas it came together real nice. All oak, total cost including resin for bar top totaled about $600. Doesn't include the cost of all the beer I had to drink to create the bar top!"

HB-003 ..."I really enjoyed working on the bar and the plans were very well done, this was my first woodworking project and I had no experience. I looked at several different sites before going with your plans and I am very happy with that decision. Being in the Air Force I was able to complete the whole project at the Base woodshop... I was able to finish the bar in three weeks during the time I was waiting to start training in the F-15". Rhett H., 1LT USAF Panama City, FL More Info

HB-003 ..."The plans for the bar were very easy to follow. This was my first big project, and it went off very well. I made a few modifications, I did not include the sink, and I made the top out of 3/4" plywood rather than particle board with laminate. I am very happy with the total project! And I am lookinmg forward to "breaking it in" with the family and neighbors! Thanks for all the help! Rich B., Hoffmann Estates, IL More Info

HB-003 ..."I just wanted to give you some feedback on the bar plans I purchased from you in December 2003. I purchased your Wet Bar plans (HB-003) and although I modified the plans significantly to match my basement, I used them as the basis of my design. I would not have accomplished my end result without them, and I am pleased with the results from my first bar project. The modifications I made include adding a back bar in which I located the Compact Refrigerator. I changed the straight bar into an "L" shape, and bought pre-made bar rails and cabinet doors. Everything else is from your plans. Thanks again for the easy to follow plans."

HB-003 ..."I ordered the Wet bar and made a few changes include a kegerator. It took about 3 weekends to finish the project. Thank you very much. The plans were easy to follow. The total cost w/o the kegerator was about $525."
