Well, like all projects of this magnitude, it was a little at a time.  I started with the floor, then the bar and stools, then the wall unit.  After that I bought the juke box, restored the 10 cent coke machine,  and built the mini booth.  Now, I am going to look for some retro lights for the ceiling.  Here are some pics of the actual construction. (in my messy shop) Most of the build was done with scrap material I had sitting round the shop.

Outstanding!  I was going to ask if you had plans for that bar and back-bar.  I showed your set-up to my wife and she said. "COOL!"  That is a ringing endorsement from someone who does not alwasy appreciate my hobby!

There are no plans, except for what I have in my head.  Generally speaking, plans get in my road when I get started on a project.  I used mostly scrap material I already had in the shop.  Therefore, I had to be very creative  in a couple of instances to make the curves on the wall unit and the base for the bar.  I love the challenge of trying to make this stuff myself.  That is why some people call me "cheap bob"!   biggrin
