Keezer I'm slapping together is mostly done, and I'm pretty happy about it and excited to be using it so I figured I'd show it off a bit!

7cf chest freezer. Built a 2x8 collar around with, finished with maple ply and cherry trim. 3 faucets for now, but I can finegal 5 kegs in there with determination! And all decked out with evabarrier tunes and duotight connecters. Just need to finish a piece of cherry to glue to the front and attach the drip tray to.

On tap, Vienna lager. Conditioning, cream ale. Up next, west coast IPA

I liked the look of them on the left and just rolled with it. But, I plan on doing some tube management and run it along the wood. But also, taps on the right would get in the way when a keg is on the hump. Just no winning sometimes
 
Nice trim on the top of that collar! and the pocket screws (Kreg jig?) make it look neat.

I run 4mm EVA and duotight as well, so far only to one keg in a dorm fridge. Are there any shutoffs on the gas side? I like the setup, it's what I'd like to go with in the future.

Also, are the shanks 3 or 4 inch?

Cheers!
 
Thanks! Yeah, maple and cherry always looks nice.

I don't have any type of shutoff valves other than what's on the regulator. Figured as long as a disconnect is attached, then it's a closed system.

And 4 inch shanks. Bought 3 inch and they were a bit too short. Could have made them work with a recess for the nut to go into but didn't feel like dealing with that. 3" MAY work with only 2by as the collar, but the 1/8" or so ply didn't help the cause any
