FIT, it's only about $3500 without the refrigeration! Add another $3000 if you want it cold.

Minus the tap, it looks like what the local gas station has.

Plus an enormous electric bill.

It's the wrong color for our motif, so I'll pass. :rolleyes:

That is truly awesome. Would make a nice addition to the family room, but somehow I doubt SWMBO will go along.

I would put my temp controller on that thing and turn the walk-in into one giant fermentation chamber! Have like 50 LBKs going at the same time!

I had a buddy that built his own version.
He made it just bigger than the soda coolers you see enough room for two taps and a couple cases.

With his he put the condenser outside in his backyard against house and his electric bill did not go up that much.

His home-made bar and fridge added a good value when he sold the house, the guy that bought it picked it just because of it

$3,500-$4,000 from the dealer near me.

My hunting buddy went and visited a local ice making company and inquired about purchasing one of their walk in chests. It seems that over time the floor starts to go bad. He got it for close to nothing since they would have had to pay to have it hauled away. Seeing as he doesnt drink, he converted it into a game locker. It sure is nice to be able to go deer hunting in July and have a cold place to hang the meat for a few days. Mer personally I would have at least allocated part of it to the beer side of things.

Didn't know deer hunting is legal in July in Michigan.

We process pigs and lambs about this time of the year from a local farmer that we have gotten to know over 15 years or so. In the summer if he is having crop damage he gets the tags. His grandkids are only interested in getting that big buck and since you can only hunt does for crop damage he lets us go to town. The best thing is that even though we are technically in a no-rifle zone, since this is not a seasoned hunt anything goes. And yes, we did confirm that with the DNR.
