Recently bought a 1/4 (pony?) keg off a lady from Craigslist. I thought she was selling a full (15.5 gallon) keg that i was going to keggle up and when I got there it was only a half. I was already there and she only wanted $20 so I bought it anyways. Anyone use a keg this size for anything...

So far I've only stuck in two. Third is not happening with my 20lb. CO2 tank. Probably should have measured that first! I may just run a line out to keep the co2 on the outside. I've read that makes your gas last longer anyways since it's not down at beer temp. I don't plan to move it...

That's awesome. You definitely have better paint skills than me! Crazy part is, you could probably sell that for a grand now.

Horribly dorky I know, but here's a time lapse video of a small portion of the transformation.

Awesome! Thanks guys! I really like that orange one in the last post. Cool to have all the "guts" on the outside too to make it look extra "industrial". Keep the ideas coming! Here's where I am after an hour with the belt sander:

Awesome. Thanks for all the great ideas. I especially like that orange one above. I like how all the "guts" are on the outside giving it an "industrial" look. Here's where I am after an hour with the belt sander:

Hey all, Just bought a 50s era GE fridge off Craigslist ($130 delivered) that I plan on refinishing to make a three faucet kegerator. As you can see in the picture I'm hoping is attached it needs sanded/stripped, patched, and repainted. My main point today is to get color suggestions. My...

How long do you plan on letting this roll in primary? I'm about four days behind you in the process. I'm hoping for a dryer, not as sweet end product. My airlock has slowed down bubbling but is still rolling about once every ten seconds. Thanks for the great recipe and detail!
