First I would like to thank everyone on this site who I took ideas from. Lots of good ideas and some very impressive designs out there. I thought of the idea to build a kegerator from scratch in December and used this site for much of my research and I recently finished it. I wanted to share my building experience and get some feedback on the result.
Also I am going to display the finished product over several posts/days so please stay patient if you don't see any updates for several days. Hope you enjoy.
First, I needed a mini fridge as I wanted to tear apart the mini fridge and use the guts of it to cool my kegerator. I wanted a fridge with the coils mounted on the back as it would be much easier to take apart than the newer fridges with the coils built into the insulation. I found a working mini fridge at a local thrift shop for $15. I used sawzall to cut the fridge to get the guts out as well as a pair of tin snips for the areas near the cooling as I did not want to cut through the line.
