Working on turning this old drink machine into a storage container/safe for guns. I’ve done one before. This one will be auctioned off at a Ducks Unlimited banquet in March.

We had an old one at my last job(30ish years old). That thing was a tank, weighed ALOT. Forklift was handy to move it.Working on turning this old drink machine into a storage container/safe for guns. I’ve done one before. This one will be auctioned off at a Ducks Unlimited banquet in March.

Once you remove everything inside, they aren’t really heavy. The weight is the drink rack and compressor. You need to add weight in the bottom to keep it from tipping forward when the door is opened. This the first one that I did, almost complete in this picture. I added a shelf above the barrels. All contents are really airsoft things…..We had an old one at my last job(30ish years old).

Yes, it does. The first one was a Pepsi front graphic. This one is a generic one that just says “Cold Drinks”, we’re going to change it to an American Flag front panel. They can be changed to whatever you can find. Branded fronts are usually the property of that brand.Does the outside door still have the branding, ie, Coke, Pepsi or best Cheerwine?
That’s a clever idea! Start a thread on it if you want.
Fancy, looking good
That is so awesome!
