    Used beer storage area

    Here's a beer keg urinal I put together for a friend of mine. We mounted it to the back wall of his garage. I tried to use all the original keg parts so we cut and crimped the spear and cut a slot across the back. It empties into his storm drain. Now I just have to come up with some privacy...

    Carboy / Keg Washer

    I started using sankey kegs for fermenters so I made up this washer to clean them and found it works well on carboys also. The tip is just a 1/2" to 3/8" stainless coupling.
