Fold-Down Murphy Bar -- Woodworking
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ก.ย. 2024
- In this video I build a folding "Murphy Bar." It is designed as a classic midcentury piece that opens to display your liquor bottles and glasses with a large bar top you can sit at and enjoy a drink. When you need some extra space, the bar top can fold away, revealing a storage cabinet below. It is made from walnut, with brass hardware. The finish is 5 coats Waterlox. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them in the comments below.
Thanks for watching!

i am so surprised nobody mentioned the amazing editing skills and timing of the dings and hammers to the beat of the background music!!!! Amazing woodwork :)
Cuz no one here but u came for dat dings n hammers to the beat. We r here to watch the woodworking process.
I'm with you on that. The extra special touches!
I think this is my favorite woodworking project I’ve seen on TH-cam. Amazing work!!
This is absolutely fantastic. I make a lot of Murphy beds with different variations based on client needs, but I always have a difficult time coming up with a leg situation for fold down tables. It always seems like you have to hide functionality in the aesthetics. You’ve come up with a way to showcase it in plain sight. Very well done. Enthusiastically subscribed!
Beautiful, also that detail on the base to allow for air to flow thru was both functional and beautiful
I LOVE IT ! It's exactly what i want for my office !
I like the jig for routing the dadoes for the shelves, simple but repetitive. Great looking and functioning build. I also like the grating for the baseboard heater.
Thanks!
This is crazy beautiful! WOW!
Thanks David!
Beautiful. Simply beautiful.
Really enjoyed when your actions are on the music !
I cannot tell you how enthralling it was to see this beautiful piece of furniture come to life - you truly have some mad skills! Also, the use of the garage door as a whiteboard is genius; something I will definitely begin using in my shop. Thank you! 👏👏👏
I'm looking at bar cabinets for my 50's home and this is just the gold standard. Nothing else measures up lol
THIS is the product to have Wyrmwood manufacture. Wonderful design with many potential uses.
Great example of fine wood furniture using plywood. Imagine what that would cost if it was all solid wood. Great craftsmanship.
Thanks!
Great craftsmanship.
I love the way you concealed the plywood with all of the trim
Michael, this is beautiful.
Awesome awesome awesome....nothing else
😁Thank you
one of the best furniture items i have seen , simple but very effective and fantastic finish
Absolutely. Mesmerizing. Beautiful piece of furniture as well.
Your work is amazing
WOW!!!!!!!! You knocked it out the park on this one!.
Thank you dlindesey!
Why would anyone give this video a thumbs down? Great build!
I actually have seen quite a few murphy style bars before. But this is probably the most beautiful of them all.
Thanks! yeah, most of the ones I came across were wall mounted. I wanted to do something a bit different.
Love your work, really nice proportions and design. It's also nice to see this kind of work created with a table saw that doesn't cost over $2K. Very inspiring.
The "low cost" table saw, as well as the great designs are what drew me to the channel. He makes everything look so easy.
Beautiful!
Congratulations.........
Eres un verdadero Maestro Carpintero de los buenos!!!!!
No solamente tu tecnica, me fascina...........
La forma de "crear y realisar" tus ideas, son geniales!!!!!
Gracias por tus videos tan espectaculares, que nos enseñas lo bonito de trabajar con madera, pero al igual me siento frustado de jamas realisar tal trabajos como tú!!!!!
Muchas gracias!!!!!!
Nice work and a nice car.
That pin nailer to the beat tho.
Number one best carpender I have ever seen
You are too kind! Thank you!
Love the asymmetric balance of the symmetric shelves. Also that it looks great in both positions. Well done!
Thanks so much Brian! It was definitely a challenge to make it look good in the up position.
This is awesome piece of wood work master craftmanship... i likes most of your craftman design. PS from Singapore
Don't know how I'm just getting to this now, but this video is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!
Beautiful
Wow. That's awesome!
Wow, gorgeous! Love all the details, especially the brass vent grill for the heater!
Digging your whiteboard.
Yeah, I'm going to have to do a short video about it at some point
Klasse Arbeit
Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful.............
Great build!
I appreciate that you used laminated plywood and pocket screws. A build that is both beautiful and approachable for the hobbiest woodworker. No dominoes, no crazy glue-ups, no special equipment. Thank you for posting this. Wish there were plans! Just out of curiosity do you have a sketchup file you would be willing to share or put up for purchase? Thanks and keep up the exceptional work!
Thanks! Plans are in the works. I’ll have them in the next month or so.
@@MichaelAlm please tag/message me when they become available! Really great work!
I have been perusing ideas for awhile on needing to make unique liquor cabinet. I would not make it exact as yours but would certainly appreciate buying plans to adapt to as your project is really well done. Thanks for sharing.
That's not a bar..... That's a piece of art!
Very good job.
This video is well edited 👍
A and the project came out nice
I'm getting caught up on the wormword collab so Im rewatching this video. I hope it works out. It's a cool furniture idea and very original (as far as I know).
wow! it looks super cool
Holy crap, I learned a lot in that 12 minutes. Your use and technique of plywood and hardwood is unreal. Mad props.
Thanks Brandon! Glad to hear it!!
Love your work.. I'm inspired.. 🙌🏾
I love this. I will build it when my skills become worthy
Still my favorite build of yours.
Everything about this video is amazing!
Thanks so much Josh!
The nail gun firing in time with the music at 2:37 is a very subtle, but very nice touch. Same with the rest of the synced nailing/hammering later in the video.
I have a few fold down bar like that in my reading and music room. They are really handy and can make the room look different in a few fold outs.
That was just perfection
Great work!
A real artist.
Great Job !
That turned out absolutely beautiful!!! And the design is great, so functional!
Thank you!!
I’ve been watching these types of videos for quite a while and this is the best one by far. Your skills and talent are very impressive. Thank you for sharing.
This is probably one of the most amazing builds I have ever seen it was simple yet elegant and you did so much detail work on it and, just beautiful!
Thanks for the Sharpie Shout Out! Subtle, but still present.
That was awesome 😄
Your design and workmanship is at the level of Norm from Yankee the Workshop. I am process is gathering ideas to design my own Murphy bed with elements of this project. Congrats on a superb project. Art Bolanos from Houston
TOP TIER!! Beautiful work
Omg this is rad! I gotta try this some day. Awesome idea and beautiful execution. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks Blake!
Still love this build.
I don't know how much time the editing took you, but the transitions with the music are impeccable! This was some great work from a project/product standpoint as well as the production. Excellent job. Especially the bits around the hammering and the initial case assembly where you are standing up the walls in time with the "whooshy" music.
Thanks Wim! It took some time for sure, but it was fun to edit. Thanks for watching
Love your video.. Soo Relaxing ✌️👍
que interesante sincronía entre la música y los golpes 6:12 😎😎👂👂👂👏👏

At 10:09, lining up the clicks with the beat was nicely done.
Man super amazing I'm floored!
What an amazing piece of craftsmanship. Stunning. I can't even think about how long it took and how much it should be worth. Great job!
Couldn't figure out why you weren't narrating anything, and then I realized it's an older video. I love all your builds, but I have to say I really enjoy your more recent video format.
Thanks! Yeah it’s only like my 4th or 5th video on the channel, so things have changed a lot
Holy cow that's a nice shop
