I just want to make sure I order everything I need.

I have the lowe's holiday chest freezer, 5.0 cubic ft. I plan on adding two kegs, and a 1x4 collar - made from pine. (is that wood ok?). I'm contemplating making a bigger collar so that more kegs will fit.

Anyway, right now I have one keg, my co2 tank, regulator, and a picnic tap. I have 6 ft of liquid hose, and 3 ft of gas hose in the current setup.

I plan to purchase the following:

(1) Airline T

(2) Perlick faucets:

(2) 2" Shank (is that long enough? any benifit to a longer shank?) with the stainless steel fittings

(1) 6' of liquid line hose
(1) 3' of gas line hose

Additional gas and liquid disconnect

1 additional keg - ball lock. I assume I can cut my existing gas line to add the T and use my existing beer line hose.

All the necessary clamps. Am I missing anything?
 
Get another gas line. You'll be glad that you did. And I just got rid of my T and replaced it with a proper manifold with individual valves. I am much happier with it.
