I was lucky in the fact that when we bought our house the owner left a ton of wood of various types, sizes, etc. A lot of this wood was sitting on a 8 foot wooden shelf. I took that shelf and trimmed off some pieces then all I had to do was order my thatch, bamboo trim, and a couple other items and within two Saturdays my bar was completed. I advise that all people should build one themselves even if there is no experience in doing such.
