Built-in mini dry bar DIY
Hi, in this video, I am going to show how I built a mini dry bar with a mini fridge for my loft area. The builder wanted to charge $3900 for this option and I was like no thanks, I can build it myself. It was very simple. I am by no means a builder or a carpenter. We basically built this bar for less than $600. And really to make it look built-in, I bought some cabinet trim pieces to lessen the surrounding gaps. To finish the area, I bought some hanging tube vases from Amazon to put some pothos in to add a little green. I will have the link to them below.
** The standing fridge I used works for my space and it is not enclosed and it has plenty of room for hot air to escape, it is however recommended to use an actual built-in fridge with a vent from the front if you are going to enclosed the fridge. **

Hey, Tan. Trying to do a similar project and want that exact mini fridge. Do you know the brand and any other info? Thanks!

Joe Bobillo hey Joe, it’s the Insignia NS-BC115SS9 115 can beverage cooler, I see it at best buy for $229.

@pjohn4098 Жыл бұрын

@@TanDiego thank you for this video, as always very helpful. Question: Insignia NS-BC115SS9 is not meant for a built-in cooler (not mean for undermount) it is a free-standing cooler, is it still working for you?

@hollyfleischer2984 Жыл бұрын

@@pjohn4098 I’d also love to know if it’s still working well, but Diego mentioned he wanted it free standing in case it needed swapped out (and would be good in case repairs were needed). Smart thinking! I was about to create a more permanent fixture but am now rethinking the practicality of that.

@pjohn4098 Жыл бұрын

@@hollyfleischer2984 free standing cooler should work, but better to get undermount cooler which will have an heat exhaust in the front, and no heating issues for a little extra $$.

Whoever is going to attempt this, keep in mind the OP did not use the correct fridge. You will need get a 'built-in' type fridge. What this means is that the fridge will have a front vent at the bottom or top so that it will not overheat. If you choose to use a fridge like in this video, you will need to give lots of opening around the fridge for proper ventilation or you run the risk of the fridge overheating and/or fire...

@TanDiego 2 жыл бұрын

hence the title "built-in," the fridge I chose works for me and my space, it has plenty of room for hot air... if any to escape. I can easily swap in a built-in fridge but thanks for contributing.

What you could do to make the circular saw cut straight is screw a straight scrap piece to the part of the cut youre not going to use. Then you just saw with the circular saw flush against that piece all the way down.

@DuraTex556 2 жыл бұрын

Great idea but that doesn’t look like a “built-in” ready fridge. Looks like a “stand alone”fridge which means it does not have adequate ventilation therefor cutting its life short and keeping the fridge from peak performance.

I can just slide in a “built-in” fridge, I didn’t want to pay $1k. Plus there’s a ton of space back there, still working 😏

@@TanDiego There’s only so much air the fridge can draw from the area behind it making the fridge work harder and use more energy to keep a steady temperature. It may still be working but I can assure you it’s drawing more energy than it should, but to each their own right?🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m a bit late to the party, but are you sure that fridge is meant to be countersunk like that? Most affordable mini fridges are standalone. You need a front venting fridge for this.
