Finished and tested my latest diy project. Used a 44gallon Brute garbage can on casters. Sized for up to 3 corny kegs.

I used no insulation around the perimeter of the can but insulated the top and tower. Reinforced the top with a circle of 1/4" plexiglass. It was tested last weekend and held ice for about 8 hours in shaded, 85deg heat. Taps were sweating the entire time. Used a Kobalt portable CO2 regulator with paintball tank to push the beer. If I decide that I need better performance I may drop this into a 55gallon brute and use a two-part, pour-in, insulation in the gap.



Next time I use it, I'll take few more photos of the inner workings.
 
trying to build something cheap and easy for a wedding I am brewing for in oct. did this fit 3 pin locks or ball locks?
 
Cool I bought on of those Cans about 12 years ago and use it at parties, thought I never did all the work you did...
