Magnets just didn't cut it for me. Always sliding down. I found some scrap metal at work and had a buddy bend it for me. Painted it black and mounted it using small screws to the lip of the freezer. Holds a glass no problem and very sturdy.

That's exactly what I use, plus some magnetic self adhesive tape, like I show in my tap handle thread, and 6 tiny rare earth magnets.

Here's mine.



I use three of the commander non-stick holders.





But I noticed that the driptray tilted downwards so I had some rare earth magnets that I originally bought to hold a smoker box drip tray which I realized looked like crap and led me to splurge on the 14" one I have now.

So I stacked two magnets on top of each other and stuck them on the commanders.



But since magnets don't sick to the drip tray, I just used some of the self adhesive magnetic tape I have lying around.





I also use the same setup to attach the cap catcher.

I used big welding magnets from harbor freight. They are cheap and easily removable. Just set the tray on top of them which makes it easy to take off and clean.

Sorry to be off topic, but I really like your setup Revvy. I'm about to start building a keezer and I hope I can make something close to that.

I think I will stay away from drilling into the front of the freezer. My idea now is to take 2 strips of wood (like paint stir sticks) one for the top of the drip tray and one for the bottom, to keep it plumb. On the top one, I plan on counter sinking in 3 machine screws that will face out. I will epoxy those in to keep them from spinning, and use some double sided mounting tape to attach each strip to the freezer. Then I will use a crown nut to secure the tray to the 3 machine screws.

I want it to be removable to be able to clean the tray. I am also worried that if I use magnets, that there isn't enough steel in the freezer shell to keep it from sliding down the front.

Using my welding magnets I can set two full pints on mine and it won't move. Thought I've never tried three pints.

I found that I have the drip tray up flush against the fridge it only comes out just past the faucet. My setup looks the same as all keezers. Is this what everyone else is doing? Or do you adjust it on the brackets you make to stick out.

This is a pretty good idea. I have a few of these laying around the garage not doing anything for me... hmmm...

Fwiw, I drilled a chest freezer to put shanks through and hit a freon line that was right under the sheet metal shell of the freezer. I would say that some kind of magnets is the way to go.

I expoxied rare earth magnets to the back of L brackets. And then just stuck them to fridge. I then put the all weather Velcro to the top and stuck the tray on easy removal for cleaning the magnets don't slide down whatsoever.
