Still a work in progress but I got my first 2 taps installed this weekend. Drilled the pilot holes for two more taps and coverd them w/ caulk until I get my secondary regulator. Need to drill a hole for my gas-line so I can move my CO2 out of there and to build my magnetic drip tray but it works like charm. Planning on doing the whole fridge in chalk board paint eventually.

Put that CO2 bottle on the outside, and you got room for two more. Then convert the freezer side and now you can hold eight.

Yeah, I'm heading down that road slowly. I only started kegging this spring and have only the two kegs right now so its not an issue yet. The plan is definitely to move the CO2 outside and add 2 more kegs but I'm waiting until I get my 4-way secondary regulator and a 3rd keg. I'm actually I bit worried about getting the 4th keg in there, side by side they're going to be a real tight squeeze, tried it quick when I put it it all back together and they acted like they weren't going to fit. I think they will with a bit more force applied but since I don't need them to fit that way yet I held off.

As for the freezer, that holds all the Costco stuff and there's no way SHMBO is letting me take that. Plus its much smaller, probably only room for 2 unless I stacked vertically.

It does look a bit tight. With the right sized side by side, eight is a easy. Twelve is not out of the question. Difficult to hook up the lines with twelve.

I would like to find a drip tray for the tower. But not seeing anything to fit the diameter

What about this?

That drip tray looks bigger than what comes with the 3" and 4" towers. I would email KegWorks and see if you could get that tray by itself. Ask about the dimensions. If the tray won't work, maybe one of the vendors here would hook you hoop with a custom job.

Worth a shot.
 
It seems most tower drip trays are 3"
My tower is 5.25"

Seems odd that I can't fine one. Since the towers are available to purchase.

View attachment 352273 Almost done waiting on handles and gotta touch up the top where I goofed up. Live and learn. Made the tower out of vinyl stair post and made a pine box with hinged lid for access. First attempt sure there will be upgrades and changes later.

Can I get a picture of the inside with kegs? Hoping to do a similar build for my apartment.
 
Not totally happy with my spray paint skills, need to mount the drip tray and am looking for some KC Royals logos to finish it up - but I am still excited to get some beer in this bad boy!View attachment 354054

Was wonder why you used a "royal" blue. By itself, it sticks out like a sore thumb. The logo makes all the difference!
