Subject: [Shop-talk] Plugging holes in refrigerators
I have acquired a kegerator. It lives in the garage. =20
(This has impacted my efficiency in the shop.)
The previous owner drilled two holes in side of the unit for drain and gas=
=20
lines. I=20
don't have a floor drain, so my drain line is going to a bucket in the unit=
, and my gas tank lives in there, too.
I finally got around to cleaning up those lines and now I have two irregula=
r holes in the side of my kegerator, leaking out 34=C2=B0 air.
Whomever did these was not interested in his workmanship. They're=20
=2E5 inch by .75 inch, more or less, so round plugs really=20
don't work. The sheet metal is also pretty jagged. I thought about drilling=
then out to a uniform shape, but I really don't=20
want to make them bigger.
I could masking tape one side and spray foam them, but I'm hoping the outsi=
de could be a little more permanent.
Anybody have thoughts? All opinions welcome.
