What happens here

Install the chosen countertop material securely on top of the finished walls of the bar. This provides a durable and functional surface for serving drinks and for patrons to rest items. Following this, install under-bar lighting. The video shows recessed or strip lighting fixtures placed underneath the countertop overhang. These lights require electrical wiring to be run discreetly and connected safely to a power source, enhancing the bar's ambiance and functionality, especially during evening events.

Goal: Complete the bar with a functional countertop and aesthetic lighting
