I finally decided to take the keezer plunge. After studying Jester's build I started on my own.
Off to the local hardwood supplier... I chose to use Alder lumber and Alder faced plywood.
These Bora straight edge clamps are a huge help cutting a 4'x8' sheet into manageable pieces.
Clamps...
Test fitting around the 7cu ft Danby Chest freezer... (More on that later)
Test Fitting Top and base
Making the coffin
Arm-R-Seal SemiGloss rub on finish
I used LED tape for the lighting and Mexican Noche Vein Cut, Honed and Polished Travertine for the top.
Done... I turned the handles out of a hardwood called Tigre Caspi
Close-up of the handles
Had to add this one... The first beer poured. It's my attempt at BeirMuncher's Centennial Blonde.
Thank you to Jester for the inspiration... Now I just need to find a beautiful redhead
As it turns out the ball lock Corny kegs fit in the freezer fine without the disconnects but once on they stick up about a 1/2" too high. I had to space the top for them to fit properly.
