Keggle cutting and polishing

[fergusmj]

First I cut with a jig concept found here

Then I used the medium and fine gator grit pads

Followed that up with a brushed stainless look

Finishing up with the hardware installs

Looks great! What did you do to get the "brushed stainless" look

I had one of these laying around. Pretty sure they are at lowes.

Looks great! Can you post a link to the jig?

I second the motion to get that jig link posted.

I third that motion to get the jig instructions posted. Motion carries.

Hey guys. Sorry for the delay. Below is the link where I got the idea. I used a T though and shortened one side so the grinder handle fit. I would suggest to grease or line the part that goes into the top of the keg so it spins easier. I just used a clamp to hold the handle in place for the grinder.

Also. Just a note. In the picture, I have a grinding disc, but in reality, I used a cutting blade. I took the picture of the setup after I had started grinding the edges.
