I want to build a collar to store my CO2 outside my keezer and in the near future I'll add faucets. For now, I'm using picnic faucets.
I like the idea of mounting the collar to the lid so the whole collar lifts up like these:

https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/my-keezer-collar-build-219659/ his collar uses a lip instead of screwing down to freezer frame
BobbyM uses a lid-mounted design seen here
I'm wondering what's the best way to attach it to my freezer. There's a lip design, screw down with L brackets, silicone/gasket, etc.
My collar's rim has an inset. this could be good or bad for resting the collar on.
My lid has the gasket. Does that get stripped off then use L brackets on the collar to the lid?
I don't plan on making the collar too high. As you can see, i already have like 6 or 7 inches of clearance (it's a deep freezer) but i want a collar for my co2 line.
