My bar's been featured in the "Pimp My System" article on the AHA website! It's also on the front page of the site. Check the link below. :ban:

I used birch because the home depot by my house didn't carry oak. All the trim is 1" pine corner guards. Oak will be a little more expensive but it will definitely look great!
I modified the plan to fit my kegerator. The website has a program that allows you to change the dimensions and it will give an updated material/cut list. I started building the base and frame from the new list but modified the work table height to be flush with the top of the kegerator. Pretty...
Actually I checked the kegs and they were frozen. Sounded like a slushee when I swirled the keg. Beer lines were fine though. I let the kegs thaw at room temp over night and put them back in the fridge this morning. I turned the dial from colder to normal so hopefully I won't have this issue...
Sorry it's been so long since the last update...been busy!
Here are some shots of the bar now that it's all put together. All that's left to do is sand, stain, and seal!
Thanks for the info! I'll probably end up using the water-based since my friends and I arent too sloppy. How about the bar top? I was thinking of using envirotex or something similar.
