    Do All Towers Use the Same Size Shanks?

    Talking to myself... a Sick mind... that's what all those doctors told me at the State Hospital after my Toenail Clipper Accident... but they'll soon realize my genius when I have my own brewery , and it is run by little orange workers, and they ride candy boats down rivers of beer... it's not...

    Do All Towers Use the Same Size Shanks?

    I love it! I used it at a party last weekend, and the tower cools just fine (forms condensation). I think there is even enough room to add a 3rd shank/faucet, but the tower will definitely need to be glycol cooled at that point.

    Do All Towers Use the Same Size Shanks?

    I ordered an elbow shank from micromatic... and the answer is, no, they are not all the same size. The new one was 7/8" diameter, the old one (that came with the tower) was much smaller (I believe it was 3/8"). But the good news is that they both fit on my 2 1/2" tower, and now I have a dual...

    Do All Towers Use the Same Size Shanks?

    I have a kegerator I got off of CL for $50. I want a dual-faucet tower so I can dispense two different homebrews at once, but I don't want to drop $100+ on a new one. I decided to try to add another shank/faucet to the tower I have, and I have already drilled a second hole in the column, and...

    really cool label idea

    Cool idea! Once you get the design finished, you can buy printable label paper that has a moisture activated adhesive on the back. You just print like 9 per page and cut them up. They work great, but they will bleed, so don't put them in the cooler. Here is a link to the product ----> Click Here

    15.5 Gallon Cornelius Ball Lock Kegs

    It does seem fairly easy... Thanks for step by step. Apparently many people exclusively use the sankey for homebrew... I just never knew how simple it was to disassemble/reassemble... I'm gonna give it a try... I will post results. Thanks.

    15.5 Gallon Cornelius Ball Lock Kegs

    Yeah, I think that would be easier than welding, but I would still have to buy or fabricate some specialty tools and/or equipment. Using those snap rings was my initial thought, and even rigging a washer/filler out of a coupler and some garden hose fittings ... I never really scrub the inside...

    15.5 Gallon Cornelius Ball Lock Kegs

    I don't weld... once, along time ago, I touched the ground connection while welding floorpans on my bug, and caught the arc. It practically melted my fillings... so my friend, who is a superb blacksmith, will handle those duties. He constructed a refracting still for me a few years ago and did a...

    15.5 Gallon Cornelius Ball Lock Kegs

    I have several 1/2 barrel kegs lying around, and I want to try to convert one into a corneluis keg. They are almost the same height as a corny keg, so I think the dip tube should work, and the in/out posts shouldn't be a problem. As for the lid... there is no way I can fabricate the lip that...
