What happens here
Begin by laying concrete masonry units (CMUs) to form the foundational walls and internal structure of the bar. These blocks are arranged to define the bar's overall footprint, including sections for serving and potential storage. Mortar is used to bond the CMU blocks together, ensuring a strong and stable base. A level should be consistently used to ensure each course of blocks is perfectly horizontal, which is crucial for the stability and appearance of the final structure. This forms the skeleton of the bar.
Goal: Build a sturdy and level structural base for the bar
