This is a great build. I love the stainless and distressed looking panels. Where did you source them? Are they individual cabinet doors?
Either way, I’m in the middle of building mine and would love to implement the look into my build.
The cabinet is essentially a 1x4 frame held together with pocket screws. Plywood on the back and the individual panels are just MDF that is glued and tacked with brads onto the plywood. I made a quick jig to hold the panels on edge and then ran them threw the table saw on their edges to cut the chamfer. Maybe 15 degrees or so I think.
Basically I faked a rised panel, painted them black, scuffed the edges and then varnished the whole thing to protect the bare edges. You can see the plywood if you look at the end view where it’s open. It’s all screwed to the 2x4s that are on the base and that’s glued to the freezer. Screw holes plugged and sanded flush.
I’m building another one for around my fish tank support but it will be free standing so I can move it to clean the filters.
Still pours beer right? Your fine.
Hmmm, no. We’re a month beyond Christmas. Unless you live in a sorority house, this is not OK.
Christmas lights are down now. Just need to find time to brew beer to fill it.
If he lives in a sorority house, also fine.

I wish…
Just saw this thread…very nice job on the Keezer! 8)
better late than never…
That’s pretty clever. Did you not have any issue with cutting the chamfer into MDF? I’d expect the fibers to have a significantly different texture than the top finish.
