Kegerator design

[Crusader-Rob]

Are there any builders/handymen able to give advise on making a funky kegerator. I have a tall 1400 high fridge, and plan to cover it in wood to make it look more like a cupboard. Whats the best way to go about this?

Okay here's the pics of the 1st and 2nd. The lid design on the 1st was (unashamedly) ripped off from Hop Federation in Riwaka whom I acquired the keezer from (Simon, sorry.....) I cut it from some linoleum I had left over from a job. I believe the keezer will still work but will have to remove all the pretty cladding to find out if it does, hmmmm a decision to made much later I believe. For now it's a glorified grain silo and the 2nd and 3rd pic is my 'new' keezer which is a work in progress. Basically I took the lid off and set a frame onto the top with a moisture tolerant adhesive and then siliconed the gaps up to seal it, then reattached the lid, making sure the seals sat flush. sure it not the most energy efficient way to do it but as I said its a work in progress! The silver lining is that I can hold up to 9 kegs in there or 4 kegs, bottles, hops, dead bodies whatever. Thanks to Evan for the CO2 set up and heaps more and Alan for the 'loan' of the tap. When you want it back Alan just give me a shout.cost for the rebuild so far is $230.00 inc temp control. Reckon another $50 and some man hours will have it mint.
