Been meaning to post this up for some time now. I built this over xmas break last year. The freezer is a 10.2 ft older model (R12) which holds 6 corny kegs perfectly without a raised skirt. Pretty unique model I guess as new models with the same outside dimensions only hold 4 or 5 due to the thicker wall requirements for energy star. Anyway, here's some pics. It currently has 1 perlick and 5 **** quality cheapo taps. I just placed an order for 5 more Perlicks. Spend the money its worth it, there's no competition between the Perlicks and the cheap crap. A nitro stout tap and regulator are on my xmas list. The top is several hundred corks cut in half, glued in place then a layer of bartop resin, a bunch of labels I created for some of my brews and another coat of bartop resin, allowed to run over the edge. Tricky tedious work, need a dental pick in one hand and a propane torch in the other for a couple hours while it sets up to remove dust, cat hair, and raise bubbles, but worth the effort, very happy with how it turned out. I added LED lighting under the top, nice effect on the cabinet/skirt below. There's 2 2" holes to the tower box, with a small fan circulating cold air into the tower. The bar can seat 6 comfortably. I have 6 of those chairs, but only keep 4 around it unless company comes over. Cheers, Jimbo.
