Thanks, Here's a preview of the ceiling.



Building a wood frame to match the cabinets with a sunk in ceiling panel that's around 3'x3'. It's all completely removable for access and has integrated cove lighting



I've only got 2 of a total of 8 panels complete that will be over the bar area.

how do you make the beams? Are they reg lumber or plywood covered with a stained veneer?

Was wondering this myself looking at that sweet ceiling again. My suspended ceiling is looking more ghetto every time this thread gets updated.

It's just maple plywood (3/4"), corner maple pieces hide the plywood edges. Here's a beam I haven't put up yet:

Maybe the pic is too small to see but I swear the grains are continuous edge to edge on all sides? You're staining the ends that show the plys? To my eyes all sides look like nice maple?

Wait by corner maple pieces you mean 3/4 veneer strips? Still can't even see those if that's the case.
