Thanks!

I ordered the faucets, shanks, etc today. I'm excited to get this thing going!

Pulled the trigger on 2 Perlick Creamer faucets, shanks, manifold, and the rest of the goodies this morning.
Heading to Menard's tomorrow am. I am going to try and get everything done before work, collar built, holes drlled, and insulation set. Waiting on fed-ex, and they should be here @ about 10 am Sat. I would really like to be able to come home from work and pull a beer without opening the fucking freezer lid!
Also, my brother-in-law is a crazy good custom autobody painter. Skulls and bio-mechanical stuff are his favorite things to paint. Plus, he loves beer! Cha-Ching!!!!! Cool-looking keezer, comin up!

Collar is built and installed. Waiting on fed-ex. They should be here in about 30 min! All I have left to do, is drill the holes for the shanks and install the taps, manifold, gas lines and all that jazz. Looks like I will be able to get a beer tonight without opening the lid! Yippee!!!!!!
Damn, I love this shit!!

My package from NB came a little while ago. NO TAPS were in the goddamn box! Everything else was in there, but no taps to be found! Customer service is also closed, so I had to leave a message and I sent an email. Pretty disappointed, to say the least. :cry:
I guess I WILL be openin the goddamn freezer top for beer tonight, after all. And tomorrow, and maybe the next day, too:jnj
I just hope they don't think that I am scamming them. Iwas soooooo excited, and now I am super bummed.

NB is great to deal with, I'm guessing you won't have any problems getting this corrected.
