Dj,

My first and most important questions are, "How much woodworking experience do you have and what tools" ?

The third question would be "What's your budget?" :)

If you look on page 2 of this forum there is a thread titled "Building a bar" that has some conversation about materials, and links to pictures. I built a cheap bar for my garage, and another member of this site build an amazing bar for a client. Both bars can be seen if you follow links in this thread. Hope this helps.

This is the thread "building a bar"

As mentioned, you will see some pics of bars in there and you can also type in the url what you're looking for also and see what comes up.

Just curious, did you try any of the links in the very first "sticky" thread in this forum entitled "Free woodworking plans and do-it-yourself projects"?

I'm pretty sure you will be able to find something there, but here is a link to a couple of places that have plans that you can buy...
