I need a waterproof liner

Post by mr x » Sun Apr 03, 2011 2:46 pm

I'm looking for a liner of a portable kegerator. The whole thing is just big enough to hold four kegs and made of wood with a layer of foam insulation. I'd need to find something that I can sit the kegs in with ice and be watertight inside this box. Any ideas?

Would vapour barrier be big enough?

Yes, that's one option I'm looking at.

Given that you already have the thing half built, this is probably a completely unhelpful suggestion, but what about just using a broken chest freezer? If you pulled out the hardware, you've already got a lined, insulated, (and probably free) water proof box.

Go to MEC and see if they have a drybag that will fit. They are pretty cheap for what they are.

Good idea on the dry bags (try pack liners too; less robust, but cheaper). You'll need a few of them as they are skinny and tall, but a good solution. On a related note, check out this sexy beast: http://www.keglove.com/product_details. ... item_id=55" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Neoprene isolating outer with an internal ice pack sleeve (http://keglove.com/product_details.php? ... item_id=42" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)!
