  • Maker's Mark themed trunk set up

    So just looking for suggestions on to how to bring my idea into reality.

    I doubt anyone else besides Kentuckians gets bombarded by Maker's Mark advertisements so let me start with my inspiration.



    So if you haven't figured out my tank goal yet I am wanting to mimic the egg in the "nog" ad. I want to make the tank to basically look like an oddly shaped Maker's bottle.



    Otherwise my only thoughts for a pretty set up would be maybe copper hardlines.

    Looking around Maker's website I did find this bar tray made to look like slats from a bourbon barrel. It is sort of pricey but seems worth it however it is listed as sold out. It is about as wide as my air tank and should fill in the middle of my trunk nicely. If it stays sold out or for practicing my wood work skills for this set up I could basically build my own and stain/varnish it to match. The only challenge will be the wood burning/branding



    A quick photoshop of what the tank idea would be (copper tone was copied from a bottle it didn't show up great in photoshop) and a final version will have smooth drips

      Think I got the wax covered. Time to figure out wood and powdercoat color

        Good idea! I foresee it being a little difficult to have a nice smooth flow to it, especially without making a huge mess. But I'm sure it'll look awesome once you figure it out!
