Subject: RE: building shop work bench. i need ideas or plans, pics..


Near Intersection of I-35 & I-90 Southern Mn.
I built a bar out of bowling alley wood. In this bowling alley, the first part of the alley was made with very good quality lumber. A friend got some sections further down and these were not as good (soft wood) but still suited his purposes.

I disassembled the boards and ripped them down to a consistent size. I had two sections of full width alley which I rearranged into two sections for a front bar and another narrow one for the back bar. Once I put them back together I rented a belt sander and worked them down.

The end resuls was very sturdy and quite attractive if I do so myself. Some of my friends get a little wild when they are drinking and shaking dice but the bar stood up well.
