I want to start by thanking the many HBT contributors for their seemingly endless knowledge and creativity. Much of what I've learned over the last couple of years can be directly attributed to the members here.
The inspiration for this keezer build was born out of necessity. My beautiful fiance made it abundantly clear that the ONLY way I could bring it in the house was to make it look like a piece of furniture. So.....with a concept sketch and some rough dimension....here's what we built.
Materials:
2x2x1/8" angle iron
2x1/8" flat iron
16 gauge sheet steel
3/4" steel pipe
1/2" steel pipe
4/4 rough sawn pine
3/4" plywood (base)
1/2" plywood (lid bottom)
1/2" foam insulation
4 perlick 650ss faucets w/ stainless shanks
Japanese Brown metal patina
Early American wood stain (Minwax)
Old School shackle locks
I've only posted pics of the finished product. However, if anyone is interested in start to finish pics I'll be happy to post them.
