I'm starting to plan a bar in my basement and well, you can read the thread title.
I've got hundreds of bottle caps saved over years. I plan to use a piece of painted plywood as the bar top base (with some type of lip around it), super-gluing the bottle caps to the plywood, then sealing it with expoxy for the bar top. I've read a bunch, and of course everything makes it sound so easy. All the epoxy I've found is "self-leveling as long as it's mixed right!" And I know that a blowtorch is helpful for bubbles.
I'm nervous as all hell though, because I know that I only get one shot at this. If I screw up, it's not like I can start over.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Is it as easy as they say, as long as I follow the directions and work carefully? Any tips? Things to keep in mind? Links to videos or articles that are helpful?
