What's The Cheapest I Can Get Kegging?

[matchtheclown]

Hi,

I have been brewing for a while and am badly feeling the lure of the keg. I have a bar fridge I will be able to fit 2 keg's in.

I saw that special for kegs online for 2 19L kegs for $99.

What else do I need. Almost all the full kit's you see are $300. Does that mean that if I get 2 kegs I will be hard pressed to find the rest of the parts I need for under $200?

We have a gas labd at work we do underground gas monitoring systems... so IF I go through what is lying around spare maybe I'll find a bit of what I need...

The CO2 bottle I would just rent through BOC or whatever as we get loads of gas already (fabrication workshop).

The expensive part is the regulator I guess?

Cheers for the help.
