Build A Mobile Bar - BaR2D2

Step 3: Assembling the Main Structure

Next, we will assemble our notched pieces with glue and screws. Use a hand drill to bore pilot holes in the pieces. Use a countersink bit on the vertical pieces to make the screws sit flush. Note - do not install the top ring for the dome yet as it gets installed later.

As you can see in the pics, we used three of the vertical stringers to go the full length of the robot. The other three, we cut off and attached them from the table level to the bottom. Use a square to make sure everything is straight.

Note - You will have two rings left over at this point.

The neon in the pics is for fitting purposes at this point.

Utterly amazing and well done. What I like about this is how resourceful you were on a lot of the parts. The hoopty neon rings are just brilliant...maybe the only set of those going to a cool use. Plus it seems to have impressed Cap'n Reynolds. It needs to poop beer nuts like a rabbit though. 8-)

I will begin the concept phase for beer nut pooping... :) On another note, all the aluminum parts for the upgraded computer controlled liquor area were ordered from the waterjetting place today! :) Thanks and make sure you vote for bar2! jamie
