I bought my this 10cuft Haier freezer for my keezer project. I can fit 5 cornies and a 20lb co2 bottle in this baby. Six cornies if I had a 5lb bottle.
I need some advice about which would be better...attach the collar to the lid, or the collar to the base. I watched Bobby_m's keezer build videos and see the benefit of attaching the collar to the lid, but the Haier freezer is a little different than the one Bobby_m used. Here is a photo of the way the seal attaches to the lid. It's a little hard to see, but it fits into a groove molded into the lid.
I bought the freezer specifically for this purpose, but I don't know if I want to use liquid nails to attach the collar to the base, although that would probably be the quickest way.
Also..what size lumber did you all use for your collar. I was going to use 3/4 x 5.5" poplar, but that just doesn't see sturdy or heavy enough. I plan on just painting it white for now. The ultimate goal is to make this keezer like Jester369's.

That's they way the wife wants it. And, what the hell right.
