I don't think so, but the only reason is that I could barely get the tubing through the holes. The seal around them is very tight, so no cold air is getting out. I was toying with the idea of sealing around them with silicone, but I want the ability to pull out the excess hose if I need to.

I've looked thru every one of the pages in this thread for a while taking in all the woes and successes that everyone went thru in theirs. Here is mine for now. Needs another coat of white paint and the third tap installed with drip tray to come. Holds 4 kegs and the gas. Thanks to every one that shared their pics and time with advice as it all helped immensely.

Cant wait till I finally get to pour that first beer out of it.

I don't care what they say, size IS important LOL

If you look to the bottom right of the freezer you can see the grate where the compressor hump is. This hump is pretty darn tall and without the extra hight of the collar I could only fit 2 kegs in a 220L (7cub) freezer. Brings the taps up to a better serving height too imo.

That's a good idea

This is an old video I took to demo a couple of the things it says:
YouTube - KegClient_v0.1

There have been some updates since

You have good reasoning then- I would just hate lifting full kegs into that! (I'm also jealous because I have a Sanyo 4912 conversion and can only fit two kegs!)

Nice work.

Do you happen to live in St. Louis, and did you go to school in Rolla?

That's why I attached my collar to the top. No added height when lifting kegs AND you don't have to worry about banging the shanks and other hardware when lifting kegs in and out.

I can't believe I was seriously debating which way to do it at the time. To lighten the load on the hinges (although when open it is fairly well balanced), I used a sandwhich of 1/4" masonite surounding 1" of foil backed foam.

Actually when I stand in front of it and lift my elbow height is still above the collar height taking out using my back. And I'm only using 19lt cornys. Its not hard or straining putting them in at all. The pics make it look higher than it is
