Now here is where I will lose some people (I just finished reading dozens of posts in the Controversial Tiki Opinion thread). Remember, this bar is serving as my home theatre and as a Tiki bar, and I am trying to navigate through the conflicting needs of both.

Here is the screen, on some blocks as I figure out projector and surround sound placement. For anyone who happens to be into this very non-Tiki aspect - I am running 7 THX certified speakers at ear height and 4 Dolby Atmos in the ceiling and 2 subs (with prewiring ready for 2 more when the budget allows).

and now this will annoy some people probably but my layout is a 1st row of two 5' bean bag chairs for the kids, 2nd row of theatre recliners and then a 3rd row of 4 Witco stools behind the bar. So yes this does make it hard to see some of the carvings but it suits my needs, at least while the kids are still living at home.

Here is a pic of the A/V shelves and the trim around them (and of a complete mess all over).

More to come on my work in progress.
