I am planning to make a Keezer collar for my rather small chest freezer. The freezer has a hump on the bottom of one side that takes away a lot of usable space. Therefore I am planning to either do a 2x8 or 2x10 collar to add extra clearance.
With the 2x8 collar, the clearance from that hump to the lid will be just about 26". My original plans are to do a 2x8 inner collar with a 1x10 overhang outer collar so that I could just set it over the chest. Therefore, I would really like to stick with the 2x8 collar if at all possible, but I am concerned about it being just a very tiny amount off for a corny keg.
From what I have read, the height of corny kegs vary from around 23"-27" or so with the fittings on. For those of you out there with corny kegs, could you tell me the exact "real-world" height of your keg and please list the type (ball vs pin lock)? What would you do in this situation?
