This is my rendition of an old water tower turned into a bar

The six-shooter back bar has 2 hidden "Jim Beams" and 6 shot glasses

My site has more pics of these

Very cool. Where did you get the inspiration for such a project?

Nice website too by the way. I was roaming around yesterday evening looking at your projects. Very wide variety.

Very nice, can't see the hidden items though (I'll check out your site).
Good proportions, what woods and finish?

Thanks for all the kind words.
The inspiration came from my client. He wanted something with a western theme. I immediatly thought of a water tower. There was a third piece in this theme, a media center that houses all the home electronics and the security system for the home. The build took 2 weeks, we chose alder as our face hardwood on a birch ply carcass. The finish is a custom blended stain we call FT3, base on minwax's english chestnut but with a warmer tone blend. The top coat is Zinnser's Quick 15 sprayed (6 coats) then 800 and 1000 grit sanded, and then machine buffed. Bullet proof finish.

Again I say Thanks for the warm welcome to the forum, looking forward to sharing ideas in the future.
