We've all wished for more space in the frig and we all know why. So, without further ado, here it is, as a work in progress.
The feature which makes this different is the procurement of some cheapo insulation from a place which makes styrofoam for insulated concrete forms. They routinely produce some that doesn't quite make the specs for construction. Basically, this means that whereas I might have paid $80 for a 4 ft by 8 ft slab of insulation 4 inches thick (Foamular from Home Depot), I have paid $12 for insulation of the same dimensions. The only disadvantage is that it comes in 4 ft by 1 ft pieces which fit together like Legos, so there are small cracks in between. I'm using some spray foam in the gaps and doing vapor barrier on both sides, so it will be fine. It has a 6' x 4' floor and is a little more than 6' high inside.
