Glad the thread helped out so much brother! That was the only reason I wanted to create this build thread was I wanted to help out future BOTL with theirs as well and between here and another forum I have helped Tons so far and that makes me very pleased.
My collection was starting to get out of control but some recent wedding set-backs forced me to sell around 100 premium sticks and I now have plenty of room ... so the thought of buying a drawer system from Forrest and selling the trays won't happen for a while now I think.
If you are going the tray route though I still recommend you getting some trays from Forrest ... he sells the same trays basically for $10 ... and you can also get them for like 3 bucks more a trays to go about 2" deeper and 4" for $7 more more.
The one thing though is for 10 bucks I dont think Forrest trays come with divider and CH.com does ... you may be able to work out a deal with him if you email or PM him.
I would have bought the ones from Forrest if he had these back when I build my cooler that are 2" deeper cause I would have more and I would still I think have room for the palstic trays I got in the back as well.
But I suggest the funds to go to a BOTL on the forums for the 10 dollar trays instead of CH.com ... plus they may be build a little better with pssibly thicker SC wood maybe.
Let me know if I can help out any further with your build brother and good luck!
:-)

You got it brother ... I'm glad it helped and it makes me excited to know my thread comes up on a lot of google searches for other brothers that may not be part of the forums yet.

Always here to help!

Another shameless bump ... I saw a thread from a new Asylum brother that just signed up asking for links to a thread to help with a wineador build. another brother linked my thread but just wanted to throw this up top so it's visible for other new BOTL looking to get a wineador this new year.
Thanks again guys and I am SO pleased that this thread has helped out so many.

wow that looks great! you have done a great job from start to finish
:-) i have a 12 bottle but i know i need to upgrade soon, i was thinking about a 18 bottle dual zone (cigars on bottom and chilled bourbon on top) but then i would still be dealing with almost the same area so i guess i will go the 28 bottle route.

I have not been able to get in touch with the brother who had this decal done for me but to put your mind at ease he also sent me a smaller decal thats was just the same as this and I tried to put it on the back window of my charger and it would not work.
This decal was meant for normal applications since all it took really was a wash and rub and cleaning of the back window for it all to just to peel away.
I know of another brother hooking up tons of these different sticker decals for very cheap (a few bucks a decal) if you are interested ... PM me and I will provide you with a link to them.
I loved this decal the day I put it on the cooler ... just ready set it off and made it look really nice.

No site that has these ... and the guy I got this one from I can no longer get in touch with for some reason.
And fromt he above post about another guy I know on another forum ... that deal decal deal is on hold at the moment ... he will be contacting us when and if he is able to possibly get these done.
So unfortunately guys at the moment I do now know anymore or have any contacts that can have these made.
If that changes I will be sure to let you guys know.
