Rolling Kegerator - Drain Spigot - What Did You Use?

[Jiffster]

Having a hard time finding something that will work for my trash can rolling kegerator build.

Looking for detailed advice / examples.

Thank you.

You mean a drain for the bottom to drain off water from melted ice?

How about something like this:

Or you could get a couple washers and a lock nut for something like this to install into the bottom of the side:

That way you could hook up a hose and drain it far away from where it actually sits.

Yes. I've been trying to figure out how I would assemble the threaded spigot like in your second link.

I'm sure Home Depot sells something in the plumbing section that would screw on to the threads and have enough of a lip to keep it from pulling through.

Just go to the store and piece some stuff together until you come up with something that looks as if it will work.

This one has more of a lip on it than what I've been able to find so far.
