I'll take these if you still have them!

I sorted out the 12v electrical going to the led and fan by using a 4 pin plug, so i could disconnect it from the lid when i want to disassemble it for moving. Next up was finishing the top, i needed to caulk the edges of the tiling I used painters tape to tape up a neat line and it endud up...

I think its about time i posted an update! I've been a bit distracted by a functional keezer and have neglected this build thread :p Se next up was grouting. This was my least favourite part of the project... I made it hard for myself and didnt scrub the tiles fast enough which left me scrubbing...

Thanks for the offer dude! I contacted cheeky peak and they are sending some replacements... I will be changing them out for some chrome ones at some point...

Hey any chance you have a product name or a picture of this? I haven't had much luck in finding it in bunnings.

Thanks man... yeah it's getting pretty heavy... I'm going to investigate some gas struts or something... I added some castors last week. Set up for a few coats of cabots gloss polyurethane Inbetween coats i rubbed it back with some 0000 steel wool... that worked a treat and left me with a...

My perlicks finally arrived!! Unfortunately the black plastic collars on 2 of the shanks were broken. So i measured out the holes and drilled 3 22mm holes so suit the shanks. They look the business! i'm so glad i went with the 650ss taps :D I've also attached some wood for the access door...

Time for an easter long weekend update! I started the long weekend with some nice and dusty hole sawing... 1 hole for cold air intake into the coffin, 1 hole for the cold air to circulate back into the chesty and the middle hole will accomodate the beer lines. This was an absolute prick of a job...

My stc-1000 arrived in the mail :) I'll be playing sparky this long weekend! I'm not 100% sure on the wiring diagram i'll be using but was looking at this one. I think i'll do a little bit more research!

I made some progress today! I started with setting the threaded inserts to bolt the top to the freezer. I've cut some threaded rod to bolt all the way through, I went with this method because I need to tile over the location where the bolts go. Hopefuly they don't fail, i added some MS...

Yeah i know the ropes look pretty cool, but they are steering away from the look i am going for... I may wait until i get it all built until i modify them... Now that i am looking at the pic of the manifold i've realised that a mate of mine has that setup on his 2 tap kegerator... Nice and neat...

I aquired some old sail & anchor tap handles today... I'm going to modify these and get rid of the rope & gold rings... With a sand and a restain they will come up a treat!

I just went for this one http://www.cheekypeakbrewery.com.au/index.php/co2-gas-bottles-regulators-accessories/product/374-3-way-co2-gas-manifold These are expandable and pretty cheap... Should do the trick! I havn't looked into the john west fittings.

well the shanks are 90mm so that should provide some extra insulation! Hey leighaus, do you have any pics of your access panel in the coffin? how did you do it? I was going to use a couple of hinges and use some foam seals or something.

Awesome! Thanks TJ, i ordered x3 650ss taps, x3 90mm shanks and a 3 way gas manifold... Pretty excited for these to turn up! The font tower shank would have been too short as the coffin wood is 19mm... I think i'm going to stop tallying up the cost of this project now :p
