I named this in honor of BierMuncher (avatar) whos thread: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=30179&highlight=drip+tray really got me thinking on how to make a low cost wall mount tray.
While I think BierMuncher's "fellas" are perfect for beer tower applications, I needed something that would mount to the front of my fridge.
I made this from a 14" stainless mud pan (for sheetrock), $11.95 at Lowe's, and a piece of leftover stainless that I got from a local welder in exchange for a couple of beers.
A little drilling, some crimping and BAM! The Chief:
Front:
Back:

The top snaps right off for easy cleaning.
The shape of the pan will require me to make a wedge shaped mount on the fridge door to keep it level. A nice piece of scrap wood, and I'm in business. I may end up drilling some more holes in the top, but I really liked the look of this layout. You could also add a drain without too much trouble if you felt like it.
They also have these in 12" models if the 14" is too big for someone.
