Can anyone recommend plans for a Murphy bar? Maybe something that's not TOO ambitious, but doesn't look like shit either
Is that like a murphy bed, but with bottles and glasses? Seems.. risky

Edit: I looked it up and I get it now. Sorry brosef, no plans, but doesn't look too hard:

I just want a hanging one, not something with a full bar. Like.....maybe 2ft x 3ft where a little standing bar folds down.

I have an idea for one I was going to whip up but I thought I'd look for plans first. Haven't found many

I was going to do a similar thing, but just ended up doing a hanging liquor cabinet with some drawers. I shared it in this thread a couple years ago I believe. After trying a few different things for the folding down part, I felt like I couldn't really do it as sturdy as I wanted without buying hardware that was more expensive than I really wanted to shell out. Definitely share if you find some good plans/ideas.

I did one a couple years ago too. It isn’t that difficult and there’s 100 different ways to do the joinery. I based my measurements around the rocks glasses that a friend used and the typical dimensions of a whiskey they drank.

It is oak and I used TotalBoat sealer and finish. Have a Fusion3D file somewhere too on my desktop and some other photos. On my phone now and these were the easiest to find.

Thanks! Your post is where I got the idea. Any pics of the finished install?

Unfortunately, no. It was for a couple I knew from hanging out at bars and when I gave it to them they were building their deck. Since it’s been like 4 years since stopping drinking have lost contact with them 😅

Good on Bosch. The router is way out of warranty. They sent me a FedEx label and said "send that bitch back and we'll unfuck it."

$149.

Not quite as good as I thought they'd be. But since it's a $329 router, I guess this is the best way to go.
