Not sure if I attached the photo right. It's a Mexican pine bar I bought on adverts. Kegs are in a chest freezer with added on collar. I have added a swan neck 3 tap tower since this. I also painted the logos with chalk board paint to write what's on tap

He did. He painted his initials onto it, then he said what beverage (or bevvy) is being dispensed. ABinBev... oh, no, wait.

im well pleased with it , got a fosters ice one aswell with the same style tap , realy nice guy and very into the idea of reuseing stuff rather than dumping/returning to reps , got a display freezor and a chiller unit to play with aswell . also picked up some pallets while on my evening walk .....(to the off licence and back lol) nothing like comeing home from a walk with wood   >:D
