Made this sign today for a show I'm doing in Redondo Beach, CA on Nov. 13. I think it came out pretty ok (?). It's 31" x 16". I made the BarTiki lettering out of an old bar top (1/2" ply w/ Bamboo Grain Formica).

Lookin'good Matt, a nice addition to your products. I think they would sell well personalized for home bars.

Ditto what RR said.

Tiki Rider, You pose an interesting and hard to answer question. Though I do not question the integrity of anyone here on Tiki Central, as a rule I do not give out supplier information to people. You know, trade secrets and all that. If you had asked if I could re-do your bar top, I'd give you a helluva price. If you'd like to discuss this option, PM me.
Thanks, Matt

You got to be kidding. trade secrets? integrity of members? sorry to bother you, was not trying to find your secret suppliers or techniques. Just wondering where a fellow tiki central member could buy the super secret material called formica laminate and how its generally applied.
hmmm...Maybe I'll try the area 51 website or walmart opps cant go there...maybe home depot.
P.s. you still do nice work.

Oh come on now.....Don't go to the Depot or Lowes, they'll charge you an arm and a leg. I assume you're local. I'll PM you my phone #, give me a call and I'll give you all the trade secrets you desire....seriously.
