I think we can all agree that the world is full of coffee lovers, so this project was a no brainer! I needed a fun way to display and store all of my coffee items and this coffee bar was the perfect addition to my kitchen.
Attach the bottom (48") 1x6 stretcher to the two (35") coffee bar sides using 1 1/4" pocket hole screws and wood glue. The side with the pocket holes should be facing down. (Pocket holes were made with a Kreg Jig on a 3/4" setting.)
Attach the top (48") 1x6 stretcher to the two coffee bar sides using 1 1/4" pocket hole screws and wood glue. The side with the pocket holes should be facing down. (Pocket holes were made with a Kreg Jig on a 3/4" setting.)
Attach the two middle (33") 1x6 boards to the coffee bar using 1 1/4" pocket hole screws and wood glue. The sides with the pocket holes should be facing outward. (Pocket holes were made with a Kreg Jig on a 3/4" setting.) Boards should be 12" from the coffee bar side.
Attach the (12") 1x6 shelving to the coffee bar using 1 1/4" pocket hole screws and wood glue. The sides with the pocket holes should be facing down. (Pocket holes were made with a Kreg Jig on a 3/4" setting.) The top shelves should be 11" from the top and the bottom shelves are 11" from the bottom.
Assemble frame using using 1 1/4" pocket hole screws and wood glue. (Pocket holes were made with a Kreg Jig on a 3/4" setting.) Note: Make sure to measure against your assembled coffee bar before making cuts for best fit.
Add coffee bar frame to coffee bar using a brad nailer, finish nails and wood glue.
Add (49 1/2"x35") 1/4" plywood to the back of the coffee bar using a staple gun and wood glue.
Fill all nail holes with DAP wood filler and let dry. Sand down the coffee bar with a corner cat sander and wipe off any dust.
Paint the coffee bar with two light coats of paint and let dry thoroughly. I used Behr Ultra Pure White.
Assemble Barn Door Hardware 4 - Clothesline Pulleys 4 - 2" Hex Screws 4 - 1" Spacers 1 - 1" x !/8" x 96" Aluminum Flat Bar 4 - 1/4" x 1" Hex Bolts Pack of 1/4" washers Pack of 1/4" locking nuts 8 - Baby Hex Screws I used Shanty 2 Chics, barn door hardware tutorial for this project. Check it out here. http://www.shanty-2-chic.com/2017/03/diy-barn-door-hardware-20.html
Spray paint barn door hardware, drawer pulls, pipe and S hardware with color of choice (Rustoleum Metallic Finish), let dry and then spray with clear enamel spray.
Assemble barn doors by adding (4 1/2") 1/4" mdf pieces to a sheet of (12"x35") 1/2" mdf. Space out the 1/4" mdf by placing two nickels in between. Secure down with glue and hold it into place with clamps (overnight). Once the Doors are completely dry, paint the doors.and add the door handles.
Cut the 1/2" pipes down to size with a pipe cutter. Pipes should be long enough to fit snug in the coffee bar. My pipes were 22 2/8"
Add 1/4" MDF pieces under piping for support. Attach with wood glue/brad nails. I placed my pipes based on the sizes of my coffee cups.
Place the flat bar on the coffee center and drill through the holes in the bar. I drilled four holes in my bar for extra support. Once the holes are drilled, attach the flat bar to the coffee center using the spacers and 2" hex screws.
Hang your pulleys on the flat bar and place your coffee bar door up against the coffee center. I placed a 1x6 under the door for proper spacing and then attached the pulleys to the door with baby hex screws. Use a level to screw evenly.
Hang your S hooks and coffee cups, decorate and Enjoy!
