Heya Finky that red downlighting on the front is the most! Very cool. The diagonal bamboo is gonna look cool too.
Keep posting pics, we love it as much as you do!

Hey Finkdaddy, that bar is coming along very nicely. Very, very nicely. You carve, paint, work 3-D and now do artsy constuction. What don't you do? Oh, and by the way, what's the first drink you're going to make with that rum?

Mmmm, Havana Club! I'm having drunken flashbacks to Madrid and Barcelona. Curse you, stupid Cuban embargo!

We've gotta have one plus side for living in a virtual tiki desert. And the Havana still costs us $18.

Hey Finky, Yes We noticed that Lonley, Un-Opened bottle of Havana Rum, and Oh yeah is that your bar you are workin on wrapped around that lonley bottle of Castro's finest??
Looks great, but would be better, opened and poured into a few mugs.
