- Our Mobile Bar Trailer is DONE!!!! (Rum and Colt Mobile Bar PT9)
On todays episode we finally finish our bar! Although this seemed like a quick process on here, this project took all of our free time for 9 months while continuing working full time jobs to get it done! I hope you guys enjoyed the whole project and give me some feedback on things you would've done differently! Since the filming of this videos we have booked and completed several parties. We have made a few additions to the layout that I will share in a future walkaround. Lastly, apologies for the long wait for this video! I hate making excuses but as always life throws a curveball.

Brief Background of Rum and Colt
Rum and Colt is a mobile bar that was conceived in the Summer of 2020. It is a 90’s horse trailer that we are converting to a bar on wheels for use at weddings, parties and corporate events. When we purchased the trailer we thought it would be a quick conversion and we could start using it relatively quickly but we soon learned that was not the case. Through this series I will be taking you through the remaining projects all the way to the finished project ! Hope you enjoy it!

THANKS FOR WATCHING AND SUBSCRIBE!
Wow, it’s beautiful.
Thank you!
It still amazes me how great the trailer came out!!!!
I know !
I've watched all of your videos and I've taken away lots of tips and tricks for my own conversion. Really great job - well done and thanks.
Amazing job by the two of you !
Thank you!
That is freaking amazing. So well done man. Awesome!!!
Thank you!
Looks wicked well done.jist starting mine tomorrow going to be very similar. 👊👍
Thank you! If you have any questions just send me an email!
Looks great! How much did y’all end up spending aside from the trailer?
Hi James,
I just finished your mobile bar build series. Fantastic job! It looks amazing. Can you give us an update on how the business is going in 2023? Also, I was wanted to ask if you could provide some video content about the mobile bar business in general. I’d like to hear your thoughts on the business side of things such as determining if an area is saturated (per Yelp, there are 4 mobile bar businesses in my area); pros, cons, and legal issues between a dry hire vs full service catering where alcohol is provided; what day-to-day for your business looks like and the logistics involved in making it all work. Thanks
Thank you! I plan on doing some more videos on it in the next month or two so I’ll keep your suggestions in mind!
Really nice work ,what kind of screws you used for the wood into the metal . Thank you
Thank you! They are Teks self drilling screws for wood to metal! They are a life saver
Great info, thanks for posting. Would you do it all over again?
Thank you! Absolutely, I loved taking something that was near the end of its life when we got it and making it new again!
This looks great! Can you go over briefly how you built the frame for the back door ?
Thank you! Head over to @rumandcoltmobilebar on insta for a few pictures of it. But it’s basically a combination of 1x3 and 1x1 rectangular/square tubing. The upper section is skinned in aluminum and the lower wood portion is tongue and groove pine
Oh perfect thank you and how did you curve the frame at the top?
@@cgoncalves308 measured the radius and used a tube roller with a square die!
You inspired and motivated me and taught me so much, first time working with many new tools and I am proud to say I still have all my fingers LOL. I am approx 2.5 months into my conversion, approx 85% complete. This is a whole new venture for me so I would love to pick your brain from a business perspective to talk about any obstacles/challenges you have come across once you’ve launched the Mobil bar. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. How would I be able to reach out?
Feel free to send me an email! If you have a couple questions I can try to answer them! I’m happy you found these videos helpful!
How much did it cost you to renovate?
Around 10k in materials plus 500-600 hours in labor
Do you actually supply bartenders? Just looking into this and wondering what insurance or liability is? Do you rent out without a bartenders? What are rental rates? Thanks
Yes we supply the bartenders all the other information can be found at rumandcoltmobilebar.com
Hi what model number are the gas struts you used? Thanks.
They are 100lb 20in struts
Wow nice job. Did your neighbor give you that ban saw or loan it to you? Either way, nice job.
He ended up giving it to me, needed some work to get it going but it ended up being very helpful!
@@jamesofalltradesny nice! The trailer looks great hope you guys all the success.
Where did you get the hub caps?
eBay!
@@jamesofalltradesny thanks! 15” , baby moons, I think?
@@christopherwhite8865 yes that is correct I just checked my orders!
Wow! What was the total cost?
in material roughly $120
@@jamesofalltradesny 120k???
@@TWgamerbuilder I must have replied to the wrong comment lol…whoops. Hard to say a total cost I’d say somewhere around 15-20k all together as a good guess. Obviously, that doesn’t include the few hundred man hours I wasn’t paid for…
