    Kenmore 8.8 Cu Ft freezer Questions

    I did a 2x6 collar then a 1x8 front facing board. The 2 x 6 collar sits flush to the freezer and the 1 x8 creates an overhanging lip. So when I put the collar down it literally slides down the front and sides gripping with the 1x8. I just put some 1" thick foam door/window insulation on the...

    Infrared Thermometer???

    I tried buying one to take the temp of the kegs in my keezer (instead of bending over with a flashlight to read the temp strips lol). I didnt like how it wasnt stable. I would point it at the keg and it would go back and forth between 38 and 42 degrees. For certain applications this would be...

    The taller collar keezer build

    For a 12" collar you will definitely want to insulate and prob put a fan in. Since that's a really tall collar there will be no lines running through a large space leaving a dead space. The fan should help keep that air moving. You may already know this, but figured I would throw it out there...

    Collar Build, In Process Pics, Opinions?

    Well I tried to stain the poplar and we couldn't get anything to look very good (on scrap pieces) so I just decided to use chalkboard paint and make my life a little easier. All I have to do now is figure out how I want to seal the hole my temp probe and fan lines are coming through, I would...

    Collar Build, In Process Pics, Opinions?

    Thanks! Yeah I bought some of that pink foam board insulation from Home Depot. It is 1" thick and is R5 rated. I plan on using that and a fan to circulate air. And I think the chalkboard paint is cool too, im conflicted for either going cool factor (chalkboard paint) or classier adult (stain) lol.
