Looked like they tacked bamboo matts to the wall and ceiling so I figured I can do that, I gotta build me a tikibar. Friend of mine was the editor of Atomic Mag at the time and asked to do a spread as I built it. And off course we had to create it in the vein of a popular mechanics how-to project. I have a small mug collection, not to right home about but I do like to get serious about vintage coctails. Is there a place her to post about this wonderful topic? Gotta post recipe for a Coconut Lime Ricky (but I bet everyone knows it already, sigh). frankyboy
