        The arcadeforge bartop has PDF plans for their bartop setup about halfway down the page that you can download. Search on the page for: "Arcade Bartop Design Documentation PDF" to jump to the link quickly.

            I built my bartop from their pre-made kit, it's a really nice design.

              There are also others available on the internet for free.. although I believe they are for laser cutters and not CNC (ie: 3mm birch/ply)

              with slotted joints....etc

                I free handed mine, one sheet of ply, jigsaw with ultra fine blade, router with home made table and a lot of evenings in my workshop. Came out great. Oh and carpentry is no fortè of mine at all lol! !!

                    I put the link in the WayBack Machine on archive.org and got this:

                    Not sure if this is what you are looking for or not.
