Default New Handles and New Kegerator...

First of all, I am not a brewer...I helped my brewing friend add some accessories to his kegerator creation. This site rocks. I love all the amazing things that you all have done to your kegerators.

I will let him explain all the mastery in this little project...I made the wrap for his kegerator out of cherry...All joints dovetailed together for strength and beauty...Why not enjoy lovely craftsmanship as your are appreciating ones Brewmanship. Is that a Word?? It should be.


and a mobile base...Casters not attached in this photo...


I turned the handles out of cherry on my wood lathe and one is made out of mahogany.


The finished picture shows it all together...Picture taken with a camera phone...A better picture coming soon...



What do you think?

Thanks for looking.

Grub

That looks great! I love looking at peoples' kegerator creations when they use good wood and plan out their designs. There are some great ones on here.

I love the look of the dovetails with the cherry. Great Job!

Looks sweet. Are those hand or machine cut dovetails If their hand cut that ups the coolness factor even more.

Nice work

Let me just say I am the lucky friend who has a buddy ,who has a wood shop, who loves to drink beer.he did an awsome job .I started reading all these forums months ago ,the thread sizing your freezer led me to buy a magic chef off of creigs list for for a hundred bucks. The super bowl sale at kegconnection led me to buying the keg kit.We bought a two keg set up with a double regulater. This was we had a easier time adding more taps later(grub has already turned more handles).The casters on the bottom are really so we can move out by the fire in the summer time.With any luck we will be drinking from it next weekend. bottoms up !!!
