im going to make sure i have plenty of beer brewed for the rugby world cup mate, might even make a brew and name it after the all blacks for when we win HAHA

AC/DC was great, corparate box and free beer all night
Mate, sorry Bro, Absolutely awesome!

Looks amazing.. My quick tips are about sometimes 'less is more'.

Remove the All Blacks flags and the Carlton Draught thing... :p

KEEP - the AC/DC ticket.


:super:

And there's nothing worse than an upset bum, can be very uncomfortable.

Gas line in on left, fan in, beer engine out on right
Will hold 7 kegs (1 on hump)

The metal is aluminium sheet - found cutting it with a stanley knife and a straight edge worked best, made holes with a spade bit
The drip tray is held up by picture hooks which are pop riveted into the sheet

The Perlick taps (525SS) are most awesome, much smoother action than any other taps I've come across

Cheers

Edit: Change from 8 kegs to 7 kegs
 
Very nice neat setup there Cortez.

Just curious, why do you have the fan on a manual switch? My thoughts would be to set the fan to run every time the freezer is kicked in by the STC1000

Cheers SJ
 
Very nice setup Cortez. Same freezer as me. I, however, can only fit 7 kegs (including one on the hump) in mine...

I'm probably going to have to re-do the collar on mine soon, as the wood I used has started to split a little around the joins... Obviously I didn't seal it well enough initially... :(

Cheers
 
I thought about having the fan controlled by the temp controller initially but read some where that it was best to have the fan circulating the whole time for a more even temp throughout the freezer

Also the freezer seems to be hardly ever on

The switch is basically there so I can turn the fan off when opening the lid so as to not start pulling warm air into the freezer

Cheers
