here's a link to it, I was wondering if anyone has successfully converted this into a kegerator, I can't tell what the freezer compartment actually looks like so I'm a little hesitant, also the temp control looks like it might get in the way, which i probably could deal with by moving it or something.

Looks a little short to work, but I am on my phone so its hard to tell. If this is the route you want to go, your probably better off with a fridge instead so you dont need to install a controller.

I followed the link to your igloo fridge, it looks like a good deal. Will you be able to keep your co2 tank inside with the 2 corni kegs, or will it have to go outside? My edgestar kegerator just croaked so I'm in the market for a replacement. I'm going to take all the hardware off my edgestar and build it into a new fridge like the one your going to use. I'm interested to see and hear how it works out for you so post the pics when you have them.

Sorry for not following-up sooner.

Here are some pictures of my build. I actually ruptured a freon line with a hole saw. Do not, I repeat DO NOT use a hole saw on the top of these fridges. Start from the bottom up from inside the fridge so you can see the lines as you clear the insulation.

Without further a due:

Cut freon line.



Here is the new fridge. Notice how I started from the bottom (inside) up. Added some metallic tape to keep the insulation sealed.




After I found where the freon lines where, I pealed back the the metal just enough to get the beer lines through.




Took apart a pallet to make a makeshift counter. Here it is prepping for screws.




You must remove the tray holders from the inside so that the corny kegs can fit side by side (it's a close fit!)




Cutting a hole into the pallet counter using a hole saw. No freon lines here to worry about




Coming together.




Finished! Fits two corny kegs and a 5lb CO2 tank perfectly!




First pour!
