I moved into a new house a few months ago, and the former homeowners left their old fridge. It was pretty ugly but fully functional. What better use for an extra fridge than a kegerator build!

The fridge:

The color was pretty hideous, but a few cans of "appliance epoxy" can fix that!

First sand down the outside of the fridge. No power sander... so this was pretty exhausting.

Turned out pretty good. Drilled two holes for taps.

Installed the perlicks:

In go the kegs and c02:

I couldn't find a good size chalkboard for above the taps, so I made my own. I bought a 16 x 20" picture frame at a local home decor store and spray painted the glass with some chalkboard paint.

Superglued some neodymium magnets on the back so the chalkboard can easily be removed from the fridge:

All finished!

Very nice! But, you know, you're gonna need more kegs and taps to fill all that wasted space. [emoji16][emoji106]
 
Awesome freebie there... might want to throw a drip-tray on there though.

Good work.
