I’ve always wanted to have my own bar, but living in a small apartment, the only way to fit one was to combine it with another piece of furniture. I designed and made this Transforming Bar Desk to save space in style.

I’m Jonathan Odom, a designer from the Instructables Design Studio in San Francisco. I designed this piece in Fusion 360 (a free 3D modeling program) and cut the pieces on a Shopbot CNC router. This piece can also be built by printing out paper templates I’ve provided and cutting the plywood sheets with a jigsaw.

    The truly genius aspect is that you don't have to empty or tidy your desk before turning it into a bar. :-D It could use a touch of glam, though, imo. ;-)
