How to build a tiki bar (1999 Atomic photo-essay)

Posted on September 10, 2006 by

The killer tiki website Humu Kon Tiki has scanned and re-posted one of the most entertaining and informative articles in the retro-style magazine Atomic, edited by my old friend Leslie Rosenberg.  Entitled "Build a Real Tiki Bar" the article ran in the Fall 1999 issue.  Balancing helpful advice on how to construct one of these vaguely polynesian, 50s-era bars with a generous dose of tongue-in-cheek humor, it’s a very worthwhile read. 

And it features my buddy Frankyboy looking completely dorky / cool.

    I would like to build a 9ft. round tiki bar and I wanted to know if you had kits or plans available?

    I don’t. But I would get in touch with my buddy Frankyboy. Frankyboy-at-yehoodi.com. He might have some plans or kits.
