basic 2x4 frame with tabletop 1/2" below sides. I laid grout on table top, then GF & I stuck the bottle caps in the grout, took 3 sessions/days

Looks awesome! Do you have a shot of the bar top, looking down at it? What is the cap design? I have framed some caps with no pattern, about 100 per frame and it was a pain, so I imagine placing 1640 caps in a pattern would be quite painstaking!

Thanks! I had a 2nd piece of plywood same size as bar top, we did the design on that, then when it came time to lay caps in grout, just moved from board to bar top. Here is the design before we moved caps to bar, the lines are straighter on the bar, this was just to get the pattern figured out
