I had an small old bar I had built a few years back that I was no longer using so I made about $20.00 in "improvements" so I could bring it to Great Woods. The bar has never been GW battle tested so I hope it holds up but I have faith that it will. I painted it to look 'rustic' and 'old'......

It is a little higher than 3 feet tall and about 3 feet wide! As you can see, it will be hard to miss the BUFFETTNEWS.com sign :wink:

Here is a picture of what it should look like when fully put together! There are a few shelves in the back for bottles so don't be afraid to BYOB to stock it :D

Going on Saturday for my 11th GW show. Have the biggest group ever with 14 and only 2 virgins.

The staging area is out of control and I REALLY wish I had invested in a U-haul.

Plan on being in the parking lot by 11, bar set up by 11:10 and drink in hand by 11:10:01

Hey BOR,

your bar looks very similar to mine but I have a structure question.

How did you get the poles to come out from the middle of the bar without causing a gap? Did you use a jigsaw to cut out holes or somehow attach them to the top?

I took the easy way out and just attached mine from the sides...
Indecision may or may not be my problem....
