I got one of the coolers from O' Meara's and managed to turn it into a mash tun yesterday.

I haven't tested it yet but the construction seems fine, the lid is a bit light so I might fill it with expandy foam next time I have some spare.

Cost of the cooler; €20

Total cost; €50 + time and a fair bit of skin off my fingers.
