This is my setup, fully functioning 3 tower 8 tap keezer setup. Still need to paint the base of the keezer and need to fill it with a few more brews.
Sure, you could fill them up with grain. Thanks, I'll have to try that
Jaysus...$40 bucks for a PERLICK?! You, sir, are one lucky, fortunate son of a biscuit...
Kegconnections.com is where I'd try first-like I said in a previous post about online orders, those guys have the greatest customer service in the western world, and their prices are competitive as heck.
Just about finished mine, I have a cream ale keg conditioning that I'll throw in it in a couple weeks, it's my first kegged beer. Can't wait!
All of my stuff is from keg connection also, but they sent me the wrong regulator (I got the std. but ordered the taprite) so I hope they get back to me soon to resolve that issue.
I built it with perlick taps, and I mounted a 9V adapter on the frame and tied it into the power cord so that I could run a fan to cool the tower. The cord then runs up through the drain hole into the fridge.
I also put a piece of 1/2" OSB under the plastic top and used construction adhesive to attach it to the top of the fridge. It provides an extremely solid mount for the tower. I also put rails on the top that I got from Ikea, and I have a drip tray coming from barproducts.com soon.

Please come wire my kegerator...please? Q_Q
What kind of fan is that? I need to do something similar to keep my tower cool. It's no fun wasting a full beer to foam before getting a nice pour

Swmbo bought me a kegerator off ebay for valentines day last year. It is the nostalgia electrics model. I read a bunch of reviews after she told me she had got it and they were all pretty negative. But, much to me excitement, all the the complaints were unfounded. It came with a a dual regulater not a single and it has an adjustable thermostat that at its lowest setting gets down to freezing (for those folks who want to chill all the flavor off their tatebuds). switched the fittings and the beer line and viola... its a pretty awesome kegerator!

computer fans from RadioShack, BestBuy, etc.
They come in 120V (plug 'em in) and 12VDC - use an old phone charger or other wall wart.
Prevents the cold from stratifying, possibly freezing the beer in the bottom of the chest....while the upper areas (collars, towers) remain too warm.
easy, and highly recommended
Right - but that particular fan in xoltri's setup looks unique - the hose is attached to the side of the fan. I'm wondering if it's a small squirrel cage design - and I'd love to know what make/model fan that is if it's not a typical peecee fan...
Cheers!
Can anyone point me in the direction of a good source to get small railing to put along the perimeter of the top of my keezer? Looking to add it to three sides (left, right, and back), and then put some bar mats on top of the lid to stack glassware. My searching has led me to foot rails and arm rest for the most part. Cheers!
Here's a closer picture. It's just an AMD CPU fan I had lying around, it's meant for 12V.
I got a project box from the electronics store, and the grey fitting is from the hardware store, it's some kind of PVC conduit fitting. I used velcro to attach it to the wall of the fridge.
Hope this helps.

Thank you sir for the follow-up. Do you get much airflow through that hose? (I mean, if you unkink the hose I'm just curious about having the hose exit radially on that style fan in such a tight enclosure...
Cheers!
