I'm looking at building a portable bar/ coffee counter and love the look of yours. So, naturally, I'm trying to think of ways to make this design portable...
Cool build. As a woodworker myself for 20+ years, good job. My favorite part is working in shorts while wearing boots and using a router. 😅 Been there. Bringing some trees home is the fun part. Great job.
Thanks! I wish I could customize plans.. I outsource them so unfortunately I can’t do much for custom sizes. You may be able to extend all the measurements in the plans by 36” to get a rough idea 👍🏻
Great tutorial. I think I'd rather outsource the job, would cost me a fortune to buy all those tools you used, and I'd probably never use them again! 😂
I have some union carpenter friends who I may hire to come over on weekends with me and help me do something just like this. Man you are talented. It is great!
Thanks Tommy! I’m about 10 hours away from Philly so I might not be able to make it anytime soon 😆 thanks for the feedback and I hope your union carpenter friends can be talked into the job!
This is a beautiful bar! We are in the process of finishing our basement and thinking about building our own out of pine from our property. Thank you for sharing!😊
love the honey and walnut stain, looks awesome also. I love the way you cut the front corners and added 2x4 trim. The final product came out awesome🍺cheers. I liked and subscribed!
My father built a bar for the house when I was a kid. I've had that bar in my basement for the last 10 years now. I would love to have a reason to build one someday, but there's no way I'm getting rid of my dad's to do that. Another great vid🍻
@@mmcc_woodshop6288 I mentioned your vid, and my "urge" to build a bar. She said maybe build one for the back deck in the spring 😁 If I do I'll take a pic for you. Would give me a reason to go back on instagram. I got bored of it and haven't been on there in about a year now. Felt like I was seeing nothing but adds🙄
I've never seen the Z clips before. Seem pretty nice. Great video. Thinking about making my own bar in an opportune space in our basement. Thanks for showing the process (and mistakes)
Hello, he mentions in earlier comments that the bar’s dimensions were custom for the person that was intended to, and that ended up around 42” tall, 54” long and 20” deep. I’m not sure if the 54”long and 20” deep were the measurements of the finished top or the base. Looks like the base is about 48-50” inches since he said that the distance of the 2x4s in the base are around 16” apart as standard wall construction. Hope this helps, I’m trying to figure this out myself, looks like today is the day I build this for my boyfriend
Great video. I will use this for my pub shed. Regarding the mistake, wouldn't it have been easier just to remove the middle board that was preventing you from dropping down the shelf and then screwing it back on, rather than removing all the tongue and groove boards? I'm sure I'm missing something.
Thanks for watching! Yes, that would’ve worked as well - there’s really no specific reason I didn’t do that, I guess popping the tongue & groove boards off was just the first thing I thought of 👍🏻
For the Mistake, I’m guessing it wouldn’t have fit from bottom up in, as if you laid the entire bar on its back and came from what normally would of been the ground up in.
That might have worked - I didn't think to try it that way. At the time it seemed easier to just pop the tongue and groove panels on the side back off.
I thought the color seemed a bit too dark but like what you did. You took some dead space gave you your own room and left enough on the other side of the wall. You could probably do an entire video on how you handle the smoke.
Maybe you could have put the bar on it's side and put the bottom shelf in from the bottom instead of the top? No need to take off tongue groove? I've made tons of errors and I'm always trying to figure out how to correct them.
Hey Diego, thanks! This was somewhere in the neighborhood of 8 2x4s, 20ish tongue and groove 8’ boards, and 6 2x10x8s. You may have some leftover cutoffs from all that, and I would have used 2x10x10s instead if they had them
I can’t remember dimensions unfortunately as I was just cutting everything to length as I was going along. Teak wood is probably the best for outdoors, but very expensive. Treated pine will work fine as well 👍🏻
Question: do u have the dimensions of the bar? I can’t find them anywhere on your pages. Just need to know the amount of space I need before I purchase the plans as I’m aiming for a tight space in the basement I’m guessing I’ll need a 5ftx3ft space but it’s just a guess.
Hey Brenton, rough dimensions were 42” tall, 54” long, and 20” deep. I was winging this design and really didn’t record anything plans wise other than the final dimensions 👍🏻
I was winging this one on the fly and don’t have the dimension recorded unfortunately, but if I recall this ended up somewhere around 42” tall, 5’ long, and 20” or so deep.
I didn’t record dimensions, but the pipe is 1” black iron. Pretty sure the two main pieces across the front are 24” in length connected with a T and then two 90degree elbows on the sides.
@@mmcc_woodshop6288 Cool. I already copied your design. Kinda. But things got put on hold because the RV park I wanted to buy would not qualify for a business loan. The guy screwed up the books on the business. So I'll be building one from scratch with lake front property. So if you want to know the in's N out's of building an RV park, be sure to fallow along.
The dimensions were provided and made to size by the recipients of the bar 🤷🏻♂️ it ended up fitting well for the space that they had. Thanks for watching and for the feedback!

Thanks! You could always add heavy duty casters to the underside main frame to mobilize it 👍🏻
@@mmcc_woodshop6288 that's definitely one of the additions I'm looking at. Ideally, I want it to fold or dismantle and pack flat, too.
Cool build. As a woodworker myself for 20+ years, good job. My favorite part is working in shorts while wearing boots and using a router. 😅 Been there. Bringing some trees home is the fun part. Great job.
Thanks! I can’t wait for the shorts and boots weather again!
I absolutely love this build! It would be awesome if you made a separate set of digital plans making the bar 3 feet longer.

That might have worked - I didn't think to try it that way. At the time it seemed easier to just pop the tongue and groove panels on the side back off.
Question: why didn't you notch out the shelves to fit around the studs? Wouldn't they lay flat against the front end of the bar
That would’ve worked, I just had it in my mind already to do it this way I suppose
Awesome build!
Thanks Bucky!

Hello MMCC_Woodshop, do you remember the length of the 1” black pipe you used? Looks like 2 of the 24” on the front and for the sides maybe a 12”?
I believe those are correct. If you made it longer or wider you could always adjust the pipe measurements as well 👍🏻
Maybe you could have put the bar on it's side and put the bottom shelf in from the bottom instead of the top? No need to take off tongue groove? I've made tons of errors and I'm always trying to figure out how to correct them.
That might’ve worked, I’m not sure if I thought to try that. I’m with you though, always trying to fix my errors 😆
How wide is the bar top? How long is the L shaped bit?
Rough figures are ~15” wide and 5.5’ long
Nice build. I’m building a bar soon. How far off the ground is the foot rest?
Thanks! Standard height is about 6” off the ground 👍🏻
Hello Mr Matt awesome job exactly what i need can you please share a list of wood material and qty that you used to make this bar please!!!
Hey Diego, thanks! This was somewhere in the neighborhood of 8 2x4s, 20ish tongue and groove 8’ boards, and 6 2x10x8s. You may have some leftover cutoffs from all that, and I would have used 2x10x10s instead if they had them

Thanks Mack!
First off great work on that bar! Do you ever use minwax wood pre-conditionner? If so what are your thoughts is it worth using?
Thanks! Yes, I do sometime. It definitely helps with a smoother color and keeps the blotchiness down 👍🏻
How many two by fours did you use? Approximately? I am going to do this build this weekend. Thank you.

What was the length of your wings? Also, any advice on what type of wood would be good for outdoor use?
