    real nice, are thouse glass in-lays? I take it you can smoke at your bar?

    I have to say Bill I actually dig yours a bit more than Combs. I like the pale wood look better. Both excellent bars though.

    Thanks Nate! I had a blast making that bar top. I found some old oak flooring in a guys barn and cut the tounge and grooves off, glued two 12" slabs together bowling alley style (with the oak boards having their edge showing up) and as I mentioned, ran them through a planer then poured that two-part epoxy finish over the bar. You may have seen bars in the past where they put some kind of coins or currency or photographs on the top then pour this thick stuff over them so they become part of the bar top. The finish is pretty thick, maybe even as much as 1/8 of an inch.

    Don't fret Bill, I probably saw this error more than any other during my stint grading papers (of course I made essays about the rock supergroup KISS a weekly assignment).

    BTW, I think your bartop looks fantastic. My dad had a Pachinko machine and when my sister and I went to visit we played with that damn thing ALOT.

    How about Ketel One? I'm a big fan but I haven't tried all the other ones you've mentioned other than grey goose and the cheapies.

    It has 6 bottles of vodka in the top (rectangles on the top in the first pic) Velvet lined shadow boxes that the bottles sit in then inlayed glass inserted into the top. Lighting under to make them glow in the dark. Sorry Pics are a bit big

    Hey CC, is that a Pachinko(sp?) machine built into your wall?

    YEP, you got it!! I'm pretty sure you spelled it correctly too!

    My father bought that for my brother and I for Christmas back in the 1970s. We used to use it quite a bit back then and of course, it then just sat around not getting used. When I finished the basement back in the late 1980s and early 90s, I built it into the wall.

    The first one is a very nice 2003 Chateaux Lascombs Margeaux French Bordeau. The nicest bottle of wine I have. The 2nd and 3rd are bottles of Hopkins Vinyeard Cabernet Franc. The first one is a 2000 which was one of their best vintages ever and the second one is a 2002 which is good but not as good as the 2000. Hopkins Vineyard in Warren, CT is where my ex-wife is the manager. The 4th bottle is a Port from another Connecticut vineyard, Degrazi Vineyards. The last bottle is a California Merlot (Estancia).
