Just what I need! If you ever order any of these let me know I'll go in with you...

OK - so I can't really wait - gonna order this today... the towel I've been using on the floor keeps getting stuck in the door of the fridge when I close it - gets annoying after a few months...

Jmac thanks - nice find!

Im also in need of a cheap drip tray, but I need one to go on top of my bar. Any local sources?

So strange you posted this. I emailed Hopdawgs yesterday about a drip tray. I'm looking for one that is around 30 inches long for my 6 taps. I could do 3 separate trays (3 dual taps), but would prefer one long tray as I think it would look better ... picture soon to come of the taps but pretty sweeeeeet.

Here are the taps. Need a long tray. Anyone know where I can get one cheap?

You should flush mount it make it out of clear plexyglass and under light it

Nice Jake! Maybe you'll be able to host a meeting soon?

On another note, i was warned that the foaming may be bad because I have approximately 2 feet of line coming from the freezer under the bar, to the beer taps on the bar, which are not insulated.
I can honestly say that I'm experiencing no foam on my first pour

So very happy with the setup

How cheap is cheap enough? (I just toured my brother's sheetmetal shop in Saint John, he could definitely make up a stainless drip tray; and being beer-related it does have a certain cachet and fun factor too!)
