    First kegerator build with new to me old GE fridge

    Thank you. I used a water resistant phenolic paneling from Lowes and used my old panel as a pattern. It was super easy to roughen up with a wood block and sandpaper. I'm assuming you are wanting to reuse your original door panel? I'm not really sure what to recomend. Is it a flat panel with...

    First kegerator build with new to me old GE fridge

    Sorry it's been a while. I've been working a ton of overtime and have been trying to get this project near completion. I spent a lot of time measuring before cutting any holes. I set these 5" apart in case I for some reason decide to mount a third tap between them. I think I followed...

    First kegerator build with new to me old GE fridge

    The more I read about people having issues with beer lines freezing, the more I feel like I should err on the side of caution. So I think I'm going to mount them below the drain pan. Hopefully, tonight if I have time.

    First kegerator build with new to me old GE fridge

    Does it make a difference if I run it without the insulated drain pan under the freezer? I don't think it has much of any effect on frost build up, especially if I'm not opening the door very often. My thinking is that the freezer wouldn't have to get as cold to keep the fridge at my desired...

    Vintage Kegerator Project

    I'm getting ready to drill holes in the same style fridge. I noticed that you don't have the insulated drain pan, and that you drilled where it would have been. I'm thinking about drilling my holes in the same spot, but I was wondering if there are any issues with freezing with the lines do...

    First kegerator build with new to me old GE fridge

    I got my all stainless double tap keg kit in from Kegco. Unfortunately, I mistook that a 4 1/8" shank is actually the entire length of the shank and not the thickness of the door it will fit. These will only fit a 3" thick door. I considered mounting directly to the outer shell of the door...

    First kegerator build with new to me old GE fridge

    Thank you. I detail cars for a living and have a lot of experience working with clear coated and lacquer based painted surfaces. I say "buffed" as a general term. I use my buffer only with heavy cut compound to remove a lot of material quickly. It spreads a lot of dust, creates swirls, and...

    First kegerator build with new to me old GE fridge

    I got some work done to the fridge. :ban: I carefully cut the recessed part of the door panel out with a dremel and used it as a pattern for an 1/8" sheet of water resistant paneling. I believe it is coated phenolic. Just by eyeballing it, I was able to find a close shade of spray paint...

    First kegerator build with new to me old GE fridge

    First post. I've been lurking this forum for years and lusted over all the cool builds you guys have done. My girlfriend's cousin is remodeling her basement and asked me if I would like to have her grandmother's old fridge for the price of hauling it up the stairs. I only planned my whole...
