Greetings-
Apologies if I make no sense, it has been a long day!
I came across an old stand up freezer and was happy to be able to use it (as a fermentation chamber or kegerator, what have you) until I discovered a problem.
It seems to be a very old freezer. I am young enough to have not known this style freezer even existed.
The shelves themselves are the freezing elements and cannot be moved. They look to all be connected as one long metal tube that wind around and form the shelves as a continuous loop. (apologies, no pictures ATM).
It appears to me I could cut the metal tube and reconnect in such a way that it bypasses a shelf allowing me to remove it and create the space I need. I wouldn't know the best way to go about doing this.
I also don't want to simply try forcing the shelf to bend out of the way, risking a break in the metal tubing.
Any ideas? If pictures are needed I could get some up soon. Thanks in advance for any help!
