How to Build a Cool James Bond Secret Bar (12 Photos + 1 Video)
One Reddit user found quite decent cabinet for ridiculous money and turned it into the coolest bar with secret: to get to it, you need to push the right book. It is obvious that the previous owner did not see in it the potential that saw the new owner!
This is what the cabinet looked like after it was taken from the previous owner. Looks good, but nothing special.
First, the redditor had to gut her, pulling out all the insides.
Then he cut a hole in the top of the cabinet, and why - we'll find out a little later
He decided to paint the future bar with chalk paint and wax
He replaced the back of the cabinet with wood from old whiskey barrels. That's attention to detail!
In order not to have to look at the contents of the bar in the dark, he installed an old-fashioned switch on the side.
This is what the bar looks like with the light. The redditor used 20-watt light bulbs to keep the closet from overheating inside.
Remember the hole he cut in the top? This to install a lift, which is usually used in bollards with outgoing TV.
Where is the switch for this lift? In one of those books, of course! You pull the book and the elevator activates.
This is what the cabinet looks like from the outside. Even so, it looks great, but it’s worth pulling the book and ...
… the mini-bar leaves! Wow, and you're agent 007.
And this is how it looks in action. Beauty, well!
