Home Piano Bar

Would any of you guys be interested in a "piano bar" for your home or find this somewhat appealing? I'm thinking of making more of these and trying to get an idea for the limits of price pain. The others would have a wine rack in the lower portion. These are real pianos of course not playable anymore but way more useful.




I'm thinking $350ish. Remember this isn't just a bar but a totally unique conversation piece. (Of course I'd rather have my truck as the conversation piece but it would be hard to get into the house )

That is beautiful! What a great idea. It looks fun and elegant at the same time, and of course best of all it is green

Will the lower portion wine rack have a cover also?

That's really cool Ben. I am offshore right now, but will look into my finances when I get home. Of course I am interested. My wife has a piano, and something like that would be a great idea for the house.

Thanks for the encouragement! I've made a few of these in the past and enjoyed it as much or more than wrenching on my truck believe it or not. I'll keep looking into doing this as a hobby type deal.

Well I finnally got three of these puppies done. I would have liked to have done the wine racks in the bottom but the cost wouldn't have been practical. Right now I'm looking to sell these for $400. If anyone would seriously be interested let me know soon because even though I can get both my trucks in the garage I want my space back.
