  • This week Aaron Massey, from the RUclips channel Mr. Fix It, shows you step-by-step how to build a DIY Prohibition Era piano bar. Since all of your alcohol had to be hidden during Prohibition, Aaron is building this piano in true Mr. Fix It style. When the piano is closed it will look like a normal piano, but when it is opened up the party begins.

    This is so badass! I found one for free on FB marketplace. My husband and I don’t have to do much deconstruction because it is pretty broken apart already 😂 We cannot wait to turn this into a beautiful piano bar!

    What a nice idea! Well done. I am impressed by your skill and creativity. I also own an old piano that is stored in my garage for about nine years now. I think it's time for me to build a bar as well ;-)

    Just found this video. Have been wondering what to do with an old piano for years. Thanks for the inspiration. I don't drink but as other people have mentioned -- the bar is AWESOME. Not only that but I now know about the Mr. Fix It RUclips channel to check out other ideas. THANKS.

    I love your vision for this transformation from piano to piano bar and of course your craftsmanship is impeccable. One question - where does one purchase a hinge lock?

  • @gericurl76
    @gericurl76 7 лет назад +1

    Just found your channel. You are my spirit animal. I almost always have a project going. I just finished a fully insulated doghouse featuring upcycled vintage windows that open for summer airflow. You also seem like that guy I could just "bro down" with (I don't really know what that means). So, if you need help loading some old junk you are transforming... I'm in Utah... so.... nvrmnd.
    Anyway thanks for the inspiration to find my next project, I was thinking I might take a few months off, but now I can't.

  • @shaunmccartan2196
    @shaunmccartan2196 8 лет назад

    Amazing up-cycle Aaron looks fantastic, only thing I would like to say is apart from the hinges there is no logic that its anything other than a piano, will try this idea with a hinge change. Its certainly a classy musical up-cycle brilliant idea.

    This would be cool to rent out for various events. I think I would take out the harp of the piano. I was thinking that maybe you could take a picture of it, take the harp out and replace with the picture maybe printed on vinyl. From a distance, I think it would look like the real deal especially when adding lighting to it and you wouldn't break your back lugging it around.

    What would you put the approximate weight of this piece at? I love it - have an old upright with a cracked soundboard that we're looking to repurpose into a bar for our home. Love it.

  • @alysinmontgomery958
    @alysinmontgomery958 8 лет назад

    You are a friggin GENIUS!!!!! OMG!!!! I just started doing small woodworking projects from home. I ran across two FREE PIANOS!! How could I say "No"??? So now j have two pianos (plus the one I play ;) ). One is a newer, smaller upright. The other is a 1920s upright. This video total saved my life! AMAZING!!!!!!! I do have one question: the men that delivered this MASS of a piano told me that the 1920s piano has a chunk of cast iron in it. Do you know about that or how I go about getting it out? Your disassembly went by kinda fast. Lol Thank you!!! :) :) Gotta go watch more of your videos!!!! :)

  • @charliecao8586
    @charliecao8586 3 года назад

    Is there a way to keep the keyboard on there? Out of all the videos I watched, you def did it the smartest way when it comes to gutting the piano, but i think keeping the key board would be so much more fantastic.

    I love the build! Any thoughts on an epoxy seal on the keys to leave them on, and have a flat surface?

    • @loucabrattzie9992
      @loucabrattzie9992 4 года назад

      It will take sooo much epoxy. I thought about myself, I found a free upright piano on craigslist and am looking forward to trying this.
      I've seen others and thought the same thing. But there's to many crevices to seal, and you would definitely need to strip the brass chord panel out, because if it does work it will be twice as heavy.

  • @collingeiger7321

  • @christobar
    @christobar 8 лет назад

    Just a note, it would've been easier to use a chemical or citrus stripper on that finish. I have a similar old piano and similar old finishes on windows that I am rehabbing. The combination of varnish/shellac/wax just destroys sand paper. If not that, then a scraper would take it off easier than sandpaper as well.

    This thing is awesome! Great job! I couldn't tell, is the wine rack on a slight angle?

    • @BruceAUlrich
      @BruceAUlrich 8 лет назад

      +Mr. Fix It Gotcha. I thought it looked flat. For long-term wine storage, the shelves should allow the bottles to angle down slightly so the cork doesn't dry out. But I'm sitting here nit-picking and you were in the mix of a very complicated build. Just chatting with ya!
