I like it and I'll tell you why - you're building something a working man could knock out in a few weekends with tools he probably already owns. I, too, would like to see the finished project.
I'm going to try this. I'm gonna use hardwood for the top and the finish will be epoxy. The sides I'm going to try reclaimed wood preferably slats from fencing, but burning some of the slates before applying them. The finish with several coat of polyurethane. Thank your for the great video
@@VanDamArtisan I had been trying to figure out the framing and all I could come up with seemed way to complicated, but you made it look very easy, especially for us normal guys with minimal power tools
I am just starting my first year of carpentry, lots to learn. I've never seen anybody cut the round edge with the skill saw like that, or make the cuts for the sheet to wrap around the wall. Il have to try it! 👍🏻
+Brian Hutchins I will post a video as soon as I can. This client is having me convert his garage into a master suite currently but when that finishes we'll resume the man cave
Sorry about that, the owner never had me finish the project. I think they ran out of money. I've seen people sand the osb and give it several coats of polyurethane and that works well.
This is old but hoping for an answer. What kind of plywood is that? OSB? Once you add the plywood on the front face, is this strong enough to hold a marble countertop with additional steel supports?
Yes, osb, which makes its very rigid. The 2x4's will be adequate to support the marble. If the marble overhangs then add supprts because it can be brittle. This construction actually ends up being stronger than regular cabinets.
That's because I don't give a f.... Just like the honey badger. Thanks for watching. Hopefully my video quality has improved. This one was pretty early on.
I built my bar rough too. Super strong but all with raw timber framing. You can jump on it and it won't move a cm. Finishing though I was a bit more careful. Check my channel if you want a look. My video editing is bad though and my camera is a budget phone.

That sounds like it'll look nice!

Love this! Some people have no idea how easily and fast you can throw something like this together.
sam holden All it takes is a little imagination and a few bucks! Thanks for the comment!

It's easy. The first home I ever framed had a bunch of round walls. Just be sure to only score the sheet half way.
You bet. I want to build a bar in my basement now, but I don't own the house lol
Really like what you've done
Wish you could've shown us the end result of the project
Would love to see more video's of this bar build. Want to see how it turns out and how you finished it.

My god thats a hell of a saw horse.... I LIKE IT!
Worth every penny!
Awesome. What is the depth of the cut and the distance between the cuts and the thickness of the OSB you used?
1/2" osb cut about every 2" about 1'4" deep. The tighter the bend the closer the cuts need to be.
Really like what you've done it was inspiring but wish you could have shown us the end result of the project
Most dangerous handyman on the planet!
...... General contractor!
He never posted a video of the final product :(. Any idea how to cover this type of wood to give it a smooth finish?

@@VanDamArtisan Thanks for the quick response. Did I mention your video is badass? - kinda like the honey badger LOL

Is few years later, whats it looking like now bro, def nice. Great work from port city nc.
Excellent video!!
Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked it!
VanDam Construction yep!! I even subbed. Hope to see the end result some day👍 or other cool vids just like this one.
this video is bad ass.. giving me some ideas..
Thanks!
BRILLIANT!
+Christine Francis thanks!
Very cool! Did a part two ever get made?
Thanks!
Unfortunately no, the bulk of the man cave has been completed but the bar is still unfinished.
VanDam Construction you would think they would want that done first!! Lol
Thanks for the response!
You're a fucking maniac lol
Great build thank, exactly what I was looking for.
pretty neat steve
+Sandy Vanden Boomen thanks
Why OSB? Just curious 🤔
It bends easier than plywood. I was concerned about the plywood cracking.
need to see the finish
does cutting those lines in the wood make it bend easily??
Yes, much more easy
I like it!
+So you want to be a Contractor? It turned out pretty cool
Is there a race!
Always
That's one skilled son of a bitch!!.
badass
