Using a mini Freezer to make a coldbox for keg storage

[beercity23]

Hi all, i started this project by looking on here about a year ago.. Well after much researching, planning and building it is functional, so i thought i would post some pictures. Be happy to answer any questions.

The first pictures are of my sketchup and my freezer i found on craiglist.

and the finish...it is just functional now.. a bar will be built over top with a real tower etc..
Also, my stc-1000 is wired as posted elsewhere on this site, but no heating element is needed.

As i make improvements etc. i will post them here

quick update...worked wonderfully for my easter family gathering. 13 people. 1 keg budweiser, 1 of summer shandy..cold beer all day. Am having some issues w/ foam and pressure. Buddy suggested beer lines too short. How do i calculate how long they need to be?
