Block and Quayle do shiny metal tubing, I think I would be tempted to fettle something out of that rather than pay over the odds for something to rest your foot on.
Great idea though, bars without one do annoy me, I need one now........

Did you consider 3 empty beer crates, they're not just for bottles

There's enough pubs closing down and being turned into houses. Bide your time and go skip diving.

For plain tube though (I'm sure you can fashion some attachments from bannister railing fittings) try here:

Another alternative is to find a Blacksmith, go with all your measurements and you may even find some metal there that will give your bar a different feel, but equally cool. Cast iron for example, or whatever suits you. I went to a blacksmith to get a luggage rack made for my trike (years ago). It had to be easy to fix, look the business cos the trike was a head-turner, and be weather/rough treatment resistant. They were a very reasonable price, friendly, quick, did a good job and i got a custom-made part that was the business.

The thieving barstewards, that is just a plain rip off 60 odd quid per M, we are pricing a stainless stairs with walnut steps and landings for somone at the moment (must be a secret brewer) and the hand rail support brackets would be perfect for the job and i can get you end caps. We are pricing the job tomorrow so I'll find out the spec and cost, that is if you have not already sorted the job.

nope. not sorted it so i'd be VERY interested mate
my bar length is 1265mm from edge to edge. i dont want it to overshoot that as i want to be able to butt it sideways against walls in this (and future) house(s), so an overall length of 1200 should allow for skirting boards etc

Grand job, I'll find out tomorrow for ya, should be small money
tubby_shaw, your link to bar-fittings.com is winning so far
just had a quote...
1200mm of chrome piping - £19.20
flat chrome end caps - £5.50 each (i need two)
chrome cantilever brackets - £24 each (i need two, or maybe three to be sure)
so that comes to £78.20 (£89.93 inc VAT) plus postage if i can get away with two brackets :thumb:
they've sent me a brochure in the post so i can see what they look like

Bru, they look awesome... but a 64mm protrusion from the wall/bar seems terribly small... you'd only get your toe on it!
i had the bar fittings brochure come through yesterday and that is bar porn at it's best.
this needs some further consideration methinks :hmm:
