Every shop needs a bar!

Well I got a bit inspired at the home and garden show so I decided to build a bar in the shop, its old rusty galvinized roofing with a 2in live edge maple top, very simple and looks really cool.

Looks great....good job!
Must be nice to have all that room to do something like that. The space behind your bar is a garage here in Cali....lol

Re: Every shop needs a bar!

Well I found this old kids saddle and three bars stools, so I decided to make something to saddle up to the bar on! Now I just need to find a couple of old tractor seats for the other two.
