Ok so I am preparing for my first keezer build, and I have tons of questions. After combing through numerous threads on the topic I still am lost on some subjects. Any answers and other insight would be great.
Background: Im going to be doing a 5.0 chest freezer dual tower tap conversion.
1) Best place to score a duel tap tower?
2) Should I go with perlick faucets or will the standard tower assembly be fine?
3) For the bar tops of the keezers how are yall adhering the wood to the freezer?
4) What is the best way to encase the entire keezer to make it look good? IE I looked at using linoleum flooring squares as well as staining wood. Are there any concerns with over heating the unit if it is encased?
5) Should I do a beer pop top ensemble with epoxy for the bar top? (I have been saving them for years) or would it be easier to lay tile or again linoleum vinyl type material that looks like tile?
6) If I go with the beer pop tops and expoxy any advice from someone that has already tried this venture would be great.
This is all I can think of for now, but I may have more questions later. Thanks again for the help this form is amazing. Ill post pictures once I begin, but right now Im just trying to figure everything out.
Oh ya and by the way, I suck at all handy man work so this will be a first for me, and I will have to recruit a buddy. I think I inherited the problem from my dad he doesnt even own a hammer.  So the more specific the better.
