Rustic Ice Chest

Finally finished this project last night. I used a 2x4 frame covered in 100 year old recycled barnwood. Anyone want a beer?

Ha, not only are the boards rustic, that sign has looks as if its been around for a while. Cool cooler idea, will you be making any of them to sell?

Boy i can't wait to pull a cold one out of that great looking cooler Good job!

Clayton, Yup. Can't see it in the picture, but I plumbed in a drain with a faucet valve.

 

Lucky, This one will be for sale at our local craft sale coming up. I have someone interested in doing another one, but it really comes down to how much wood I have available. I'm tearing down an old barn now. When It's gone, I'll have to find another source of wood.
