What kind of freezer did you use for your keezer?(size/brand) It's exactly what I'm looking for.

Finally! No more bottling!

Sanyo Kegerator BC-1206-2 Dual Faucet Full Size Keg Beer Cooler with Perlick Faucets

It can fit 3 cornies if one of them is a single handle, or you have a comercial slim keg since it is short enough to be pushed all the way to the back.

and finally, since I didn't have a second homebrew ready for the weekend, I got a keg of Sierra Nevada pale ale. OMG, so good!

Where is my tax return already?!?!?!?!
This thread has had me drooling, I am sick of bottling every week, kegging is defiinately what I am spending the tax cash on!

I am envious of all of you, and very impressed with your creativity and ingenuity.
 
Heres my setup...took an older fridge that came with the home I bought last year and modded it a bit.

I had SN Pale Ale on tap this round as you can see lol...

Here is a picture of mine. 14.x cubic foot freezer. These were some older pics from our last house... don't know why they are grainy looking... guess I need to take some more. The sad part is where it is located now (in our new house) looks just like this picture with the exception of a different color paint on the wall. Kind of funny.

Not the coolest, just a Danby, but Gotta love the .50 Cal Tap Handle!

where did you get that tap handle!! i have been running this threw my head on how to make one, but the insert that you buy i figured was to big for the primer on the .50 cal!! did you just bore it out and screw it in or did you purchase this?
 
Gotta love a free fridge!

It can hold at least 3 cornies, or 2 cornies and a carbouy. The 3rd gas hose is for force carbing.

I had my heart set on making something custom, like a sweet keezer out of my small chest freezer that I wasn't using, but while looking for parts, I found the Avanti Kegerator on CL for $225 and managed to talk him down to $150. I upgraded to a dual pressure regulator that I found on ebay for $40 (I might get close to that for the original). I think I can fit two more cornies in there easy, buy I'm not sure if a want to stick with the tower setup.
 
Finally received my tower and built it last night.

I received the tap handles from taphandles.com and I was pretty happy with the quality.

Newly built 4 tap top thanks to the fellow on this board. I am waiting for my new girlie tap handles to finish this thing off. :)
 
Here's mine. Best part is the fridge on top, easily holds 6 kegs. Painted it with Chalkboard paint. Perlicks and Tap handles courtesy of my mom and wife.

Plenty of room.

I've been very happy with it.

I never thought I'd say this to a man, but COME OUT OF THE CLOSET!! ;)

That kegerator is too nice to hide away!

Thanks. I consider myself lucky that it is even in the house. It took quite a bit of time, and some pyschological trickery to convince the swmbo that it would be a good idea to build it.

When I move from my apartment into a house, it will definitely be freed from the closet.
 
I can't believe I never posted mine! Ah, well, here 'tis, better late than never:

A newer pic with different taps and a sign above it and a REALLY cool sticker on it::D

I didn't even know these things existed until I saw all your pics on here a couple monts ago. Thanks Biermuncher for the tips (I ended up with a different model than yours) and thanks to everyone who figured this sh*t out.

By the way, the beers in the pics are all partial mashes, L to R: Sterling Blonde (pseudo rip-off of BM Centennial), Red Ration Ale, Wheat's Up Dude, and Sons of Dublin Stout.

"I dig the chalkboard paint! How well does it work?"

Works great if you apply it properly on a smooth surface. Here's my kegerator...can't wait to get some actual homebrew flowing out of it!

Complete with a home made tower blower

Craigslist buy... previous owner ran it into a concrete step with the front bumper of their car. BUT, it was only a year old, 7CU feet for $100....
