That is awesome, what is the black stuff on the bottom? Some type of mat?

That is pretty slick. Would there be room in it to put grain in instead of labels?
I have this exact Perlick if your's is the HP24TO. I bought it cause it's rated for outdoor use and I used it on my patio. The 1000btu variable speed compressor kept it at 34 degrees when it was 104 outside, good deal. I only use ball locks in mine, but it's a really tight fit. So tight, you have to use clamp disconnects, since the ones with the mpt fittings are just a tich too high. These things are hella pricey though and the worst part is the tower isn't cooled. I ended up using a tube to vent the fan up through the tower to keep it from giving foamy first pours. Could just be an outdoor use thing though and maybe indoors it doesn't need it.

Thanks! Yep, just some foam rubber shelf liner stuff I found at Lowe's to try to cut down on scratches & rust.

I've now got two beers on tap...you can see the other handle sitting on that little stool to the left (another hockey stick). I was originally wanting to paint it immediately, but where it ended up the white with the lighter brown looks good.

Mine is not custom and nothing to write home about.. But the view from my patio where it is located ain't to shabby.
This is my kegerator:

I just finished building the walk-in cooler in the basement. The entire cooler is 14x7x7, split into two chambers. The cold side currently has over 60 kegs aging, as well as my serving kegs, and the warm side is for fermentation, oak barrels when I get to them, and my wine cellar.
Right now it only has 9 faucets, but I will be gradually purchasing more as funds allow. A single row on the coffin box will be 14, and I made it so that I could do an offset row above for an additional 13 if I wanted to.

That's awesome!
Holy, shvt! How often do you brew!?
Haha. So far for 2011, I've brewed 115 gallons, mostly 10 gallon batches. I don't drink nearly as much as I brew, and I also do annual meads and ciders. I also have some beers aging from 2007. I plan on doing a vertical tasting at the five year mark for the meads and ciders which is coming up soon (oldest cider and mead is from 2006).
I'm in the Atlanta area, so if you want to stop by to see the setup and try some beer, just let me know!

Gnef's setup looks like a homebrew bunker....that's where you wanna be when the world's a-endin'! Everyone meet me there when the sh*t hits the fan.

I just got this set up. I have my brew closet through the wall with a standard mini fridge and one keg that I am currently troubleshooting. I'm happy with it though..

Alright man! If the world ends before I can swing by my humble 4 tap kegerator is on wheels, so I'll wheel it into your brew shelter.

There are a lot of keezers in this thread and this one might be my favorite mid-sized one. I think it is the band of wood adding accent at the bottom.
Well done!

Very Zen.
Just make sure you keep the Oompa-loompas behind the wall constantly brewing for you!
What is the sound of one hand slapping a lazy Oompa-loompa?
SLAP!
klmbrt> that looks sharp... real sharp. But how the heck do you lift a half barrel in there???
Me and my friend just grab a side and pick it up and rest it on the edge then readjust then drop it in slowly! haha
Thanks! I added wheels to the bottom, so I needed something to cover up the frame underneath. I also didn't want to actually be able to see underneath. So I made sure that the bottom panel covered up most of that gap to the floor as well as framing in the bottom 2 or 3 inches of the freezer.

outside shot (taps look funny, in this photo they have not been straightened yet)
Inside Shot fits 3 kegs, then made shelves under and beside to fit bottles and what not
making a nice stainless drip tray out of a lowes mud pan... monday im welding it up so that it sits flush with the door and hand a place to hold a pitcher or a glass.... Have to love TIG welding...
