I thought it would be fun to post a couple of videos. One from 2009 and one from 2012 to illustrate just how far the bar build has come.

Came here from AVS. That’s one awesome bar, definitely inspirational! Did you do everything yourself or hire someone?

Leave it to you to notice! There is still alot of electrical work to do. I have run electrical cable out to the pool via the ceiling then out the back wall, going to add a ceiling sub woofer, and a ceiling laser light for dancing! Oh and a fog machine.

Hello, I stumbled on your blog with you bar build while I was looking for ideas for building one for myself. I am curious what the size of your bar is. I have a space picked out for mine that is about 7’6″ x 5′. I’m trying to figure out if that is enough space. Your bar looks very nice and is a great size for what I was looking to do.

Hello Terry! Thanks for stopping by! My bar is 8ft x 9 ft.
Your 7’6″ is fine, but the 5′ might be a bit tight..enough for two people. But…you work with what ya have. Enjoy the build!
