Pic is a little dark but is that a 2-1/2 foot collar!?!

Looks something like that. Here is a quick and dirty lightening of the pic:

Recently we moved into a new house so I'll be starting from scratch again with an unfinished basement. One thing for sure is that the bar made the trip.

 

[kegtoe]

very nice BerryWIse. Makes me wish i had a basement up here in I Falls.

 

[GillandCo]

Berry if we were friends and I lived in the area. I would not leave the vicinity of the couch and bar. That is truly beautiful. I just went down stairs poured my self a glass of beer and cried looking at my old beat up so called kegerator. Thanks allot a** h***

It sounds like that was a picture of his last basement and has to finish his new one still. That was one sweet setup though. The nice thing is that you can finish it any way you like now. I'm in that same boat right now. Almost done. :rockin:

Here is my new Danby 440 conversion. Nothing ya'll haven't seen, but i'm super proud of it! I bought the Danby from HH Gregg for $150. It turned out great and I definitely saved some money over buying a brand new dual kegerator.

This is my first post, but i have to say i've gained a WEALTH of knowledge from these forums and would have never been able to do this without the information!

I used a 3" stainless tower and Perlicks from Kegconnection.com.

I originally planned on building a garage kegerator, but it turned out so nice that the wife is allowing it inside, hehe!

Currently on tap is a SNPA clone and i've got a Sunshine Wheat recipe on deck.

Can you snap some interior photos of that? I was looking at Home Depot and found a kegerator already built, but wanted to know what cubic size this is and what the interior looked like?

Thanks!

Sure. I'll snap some as soon as I get a chance. I believe it's 4.4 cubic ft fridge. It will hold 2 ball-lock cornies with only modifications to the door. To fit pin-locks, you have to cut the sides where shelves go in.

Here is a link to my 4.4 danby conversion. There are some inside & outside shots. I use ball lock kegs. They fit better without cutting shelf mounts only door mods (which are very easy).

Here's my recently-finished kegerator. Go Broncos.

Thanks to my lovely wife she let me upgrade my dual tap to add 4 taps for homebrew in a 9 cubic foot chest freezer off of craigslist which was 2 yrs old for $100. a friend gave me a 20 lb CO2 tank for free and I already had the extra regulator, so I bought a mainfold and temp controller.. pretty cheap all together.
so now I have 6 taps and the wife is happy. Taps are handmade from surgical equipment as I work in the Operating Room..

 

[XRA]

Very nice.

 

[klyph]

Is the an only Mortal Kombat game?....The 6 buttons plus the run button...man that was so sick when it came out of MK3

 

[bdaddy]

It plays mortal combat..along with about 3000 other games. Pretty much anything prior to the mid-90's runs arcade perfect on mame

[klyph]

At first I thought they were trailer hitches...

Creepy.

 

[bionicbrew]

At first I thought they were trailer hitches...

so did I...was thinking, who puts a ball hitch on their 'modern art'?

 

[Dogphish]

I made this for $450 instead of paying $900 (the pre-assembled price). It holds TWO corny kegs and a 5 lb CO2 tank!

I had to bend the freezer section against the back wall, cut out the shelves inside the door and remove some of the interior wall accommodate the second keg.

Here's my upright keezer. It has kind of evolved over time but here is a brief run down of what I have done so far: I removed the wire mesh shelves, added the Love temp controller, added my own top shelf (much sturdier than original), added a cable track thing just because I had one and it keeps the wires from knocking over stuff on the shelf, and I drilled a hole in the bottom for the CO2 line which is 3/8 OD PE tubing (I really like push-to-connect fittings if you can't tell). I made the 4-port CO2 manifold from a block of aluminum (2 ports are plugged for now - the keezer easily holds 4 cornies). My beer lines are 1/4 OD (.177 ID) PE tubing. I cut the barbs off two picnic taps and then drilled and tapped them for 1/8 NPT fittings. The fittings hold the taps firmly in place on the mounting bracket, although I did add a small ss screw to keep them from rotating. The "rigid-mounted" picnic taps work really well for now until I'm ready to spend some more $$$ on faucets & shanks.

Hi, here is our just finished keezer build. Our goal was to as taps to the bar and have it look clean so we went for a window in the wall style. When pushed up to the wall it looks built in practically so we are quite pleased!

(apologies if the pics are huge. I am sending this from the android app so not sure if it scales them. I will resize when I get to a pc.)

 

[Amc82]

Looking for a little help too. The bottom holds right at the set temp (32) but the higher in the freezer the high the temp. I have a control unit that allows to change it into a fridge. I have lined the wood with a blue foam but that does not seem to be helping to much. Will my beer freeze on the bottom if the bottom is around 25 and the top of the chest is around 35 degrees? And where should I keep the tanks if the temp is really low?
