For posting it all over the internet and forgetting here.

Folks, we did not go to Switzerland.

Long story......

As for a Vacation, Well they just won't leave us alone.

I hate to say don't answer that phone.

So here are a series of pics from the finished product.

Sorry, and thanks for looking.

Per,

Thanks for remembering to share your gorgeous work with us. And sorry for the CPU messages. I'm looking into that... :dunno:

Now that's a bar I'd be PROUD to order a drink across! Fantastic doesn't do your work justice!!!

Per, I don't posess the vocabulary needed to describe how beautiful that bar is, so I'll just say.....Ya did yourself proud:thumb: .....real proud!




And, Thanks for remembering to post it here for us to see.
 
Splendid job, Per. You guys make a great team. Is this bar in an Elks Lodge by any chance? Regardless of the location, it's definitely a one-of-a-kind bar.

(And from the looks of the pics, Bob cleans up pretty nice. What happened to you?) :p
 
Vaughn,

Don't let that picture fool ya.

He is a feelthy bum like the rest of us.

That is my son doing indentured servitude in the background.

And yes, Of course it's a Elk's lodge.

Per,

You, and your Dad have created another example of "Old World Craftsmanship". Absolutely awesome, and something the Lodge and their members will enjoy for decades. It's really hard to come with words to express how impressed I am...
 
It's Absolutely GORGEOUS, Per. You guys have my profound respect and admiration for your abilities and dedication to detail and perfection on a most beautiful but complicated project.:thumb:

So what's next, (now that the Suisse trip is off)?
 
Thanks Norm,

Whats next?

Far be it for me to say we have to much work, because there always comes a day...

(I have been in this racket 30 years)

when all of a sudden the phone isn't ringing.

But often I wish it didn't when it does and vice versa.

We have put some long time customers off.

They will come first. 2 small residential bars and a library.

A sound studio. A kitchen and bath.

and Oh lordy, another one of these Monsters.

But the Big one is tentative due to Financing,

Not ours, theirs.

I really have to hire some one who will stay for more then two hours:doh:

Wonderful work! Thanks for the post, and pics, we need to see more of you around here, but hey, if you don't have time to take a vacation then it is understandable that you don't have a lot of time to post.

Per, that is really incredible, and so nice to see that this kind of work is still being done!

My wife was looking over my shoulder, and she was honestly taken aback, she could only say "WOW".....:eek:

Thanks so much for sharing it here! :thumb:
