As another newbie who is about six weeks ahead of you in the process I can only echo the comments above , I started collecting stuff 4 months before I started building my bar and most of it is lying around in boxes in the dining room floor and will probably end up on ebay as I got a bit carried away initially and didn't realise what I was getting in to .
Read as many threads on here as time allows and after my trial run last weekend I would say a sink/wet bar is fairly essential given the somewhat 'sticky' nature of Rum based cocktails and weather proof as much as you can .I used a two-part floor varnish for my bar top and it worked out great , rock hard and shiny as a shiny thing can be , I guess you dont have this brand in the states but there will be something similar in Home Depot etc

Take your time and build it with love and you will be fine.

Regards,

Mark.
