    I've finished moving and have a really cool bar in my new gameroom. I'm looking for some unique items to decorate with. I saw this crazy antique bar mirror on ebay:
    ebay.com link: itm
    l'd love to find something like it. I don't need the whole surround but the glass is awesome. I also collect antique slots and brass cash registers so I'm always on lookout for cool antiquey coin op stuff. Thanks in advance.

    I just might need a Monkey Butler, thanks for posting. I'll do another thread with pics when everythings finished.

    Of course you will need a Mustang Car Bar as well! (I have been keeping my eye on this for some time now!)

    Mike, given the $25,000 cost of that mirror, you could probably have the greatest custom piece ever made for your bar for a fraction of the cost.

    As far as the antique/rustic vibe goes, here's my recently finished bar/gameroom area in my basement. I still need to drop in the sink and attach some rope lighting (as well as MMRLE in 2014). I was thinking about putting some sort of wall mounted bar service console up behind the bar.

    Looking forward to others' suggestions.

    :thinking:You don't like more than one person at a time behind that bar, do you?

    Nope. I plan on keeping the guests on the stools and on the pinballs.

    I'm sure that dealer is looking for a sucker. I was only showing that as an example of the type of bar mirror I'm looking for. I don't want the whole custom enclosure around the glass. There are companies that custom make new bar mirrors but I would prefer something old and cool.

    The wood in tht bar is so beautiful that'd I'd just accent the spaces around it and let the bar stand on it's own.

    Where did you get the wall hanger for beer bottles and shot glasses?

    #14 10 years ago

    Hey mike up in my building in Maine we have an antique cash register. I swear it weighs as much as a pin. Not easy to move at all. Want me to take a look and get you some pictures next time I'm up there for the holidays?

    I didnt get the wall hanger. I want to make something like it. That one in particular and other smaller versions are for sale at the gameroom store in fairfield new jersey. They have a website. Some cool stuff but super high prices. 800 for that particular piece.

    Awesome! Perhaps some older looking fixtures to go around some edison bulbs? Or if you want to get fancy, use some old lanterns and some circuits to make the bulb flicker like they were candle lit

    Sure, thanks. A picture would be great. There are so many of them it's always possible to find something you've never seen before.
