    Now you're talking 7/8" hole saw DOUBLE CHECK you measurements (I still have a golf tee in a pilot hole) The freezer door issue with tap handles is an easy fix, worry about that after the beer is on draft

    Got a tank, is it too big?

    Screw a smaller one, get a full size so you can put 4 of them in there :rockin: With use of drawers and the left hand shelf Had to take the shelf apart and use lexan. Shelf was too wide and the glass is all tempered. Easy Peasy
