nice looking keezers. i need to start planning mine out soon. but i want it to fit a 1/2 brl and a corny but have a two tap tower. i cant seem to be able to find any like that and am wondering if i would have to do a collar also and how high it will have to be.

Here's what I currently have. Not sure size of freezer it is, have to check when I get home, but I'm sure it'd fit a 1/2 brl and a corny. But then again, I don't know how tall a 1/2 brl is so I might be talking out my a$$.

Thinking of a coffin keezer so I may have a tower for sale soon.

Why not? Here is my 14.8 Amana conversion. Of course it started out white but I sanded it down and painted it with Stainless Steel paint and added a 2" x 8" Poplar collar to match the existing trim in the basement. It passed SWMBO's inspection and was allowed in the house. It has 2 4 way manifolds so I can serve 4 and carb 4 at the same time. I can't believe this is my first post. Thanks to everyone on this site for posting so much valuable information. Every time I have a question I am able to find the answers here with a quick search. And a big thanks to Ben at Kegconnection.com for providing my kegs, CO2 tank, regulators, manifolds, beer lines, gas lines, temperature controller, shanks, and Perlick faucets. It all came preassembled and mounted in with ease.

I know I'm bringing this thread back from the dead somewhat, but is the top of the freezer really necessary? If you insulate a wooden top piece it just sounds fantastically easier to drill the tower, run lines, etc. Am I wrong?

Here is a pic of mine. It's still in progress, but is looking good so far. The collar is cedar, and I made the lid out of some tongue and groove aspen I had leftover.

Anyone have any thoughts or experience with this. Since Byrd made this brilliant comment I have costly ideas running through my head!

 

[BeardedIdiot]

The top is not necessary if you insulate the wood sufficiently. Instead of building just a collar, you'd build a collar with a top attached and then insulate it well. Then you could drill through it for a tower very easily. It has been done and shown (on here) before.

 

[BeardedIdiot]

By the way, ZTP, that aspen top looks sharp!

 

[Ztp]

Thanks. It actually wound up matching the cedar spot on. Now I just need to figure out what I'm going to do with the sides of the freezer.

I am in the process of building my collared keezer. I will post all the pics when it is complete.

 

[letzleta]

Almost done!

Almost done!

Wow, that looks great! I'm in the process of starting my keezer build and I love the clean lines and the look of the red oak(matches our floors!). Can you share some pics of the inside and the build?

great job!

My very imperfect keezer made from a 40+ year old Citation freezer. I made a crude collar & base w/wheels out of 2x4's, sealed it to the top of the freezer, then cut veneer (crookedly) to cover it up. I painted it black, left a white stripe, and used chalkboard paint for the top front half. It works!
