This fun-to-build project doesn’t require a huge investment in materials. In fact, the entire thing is made up of standard cedar deck lumber, 1/2″-diameter copper water pipe and a single ceramic tile—all standard stuff from any home-improvement store. Designed to be used both indoors and out, this rolling bar uses material and a finish that allows it to live happily outside during the summer, then roll inside when the cooler weather approaches.
