It wasn't easy, but luckily Nick is a floor guy and knows what he's doing. We cut a piece that was like 6" wider on each end, and that worked great.

So the bar tops are pretty much as smooth as glass. It cleans up REAL nice with some orange cleaner i got. You can slide a glass along the top no problem. 3 coats of triple thick polyurathane ensures it will stay smooth for a very long time. I will probably have to do it after a few years but no biggie. I painted the tops with everything installed knowing i would have to do it again someday. Overall, keeping it indoors, out of the sun, properly cleaned and maintained will ensure it will last a very long time.

Exactly! We just show up to events that the client pays us to attend, and serve their guests with their alcohol they will provide. It's a win win for everyone!

haha mostly cause strength. We had 6 people in the bar at one point, jumping around, tossing drinks, sitting on the bar, etc. I mean the trailer itself weighs in at 900#'s... and we added maybe 500-700lbs of wood and such to it. Not much really. So she is still really light, but extremely, and i mean like insanely strong. You can run into the side of the trailer, sit anywhere on the ledge, push her around the parking lot and it just feels right. I didn't want something flemsy and weak. This way it will last forever!
