Hey everyone,
I am looking to build a kegerator and can't find a mini fridge
without a shelf at that bottom. Ideally the shelf should be at the
top like this unit..
http://www.beveragefactory.com/refrigerators/beer/sanyo.shtml
I came up with the brainstorm idea of running the fridge upside
down and wondered if this would be possible and reasonable to do.
Does anyone know if it would be possible for me to modify the
refrigerator to run upside down? I have always heard that you should
never lay a refrigerator down but do not know why, can anyone explain
this.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff

So all I would need to do is remove the compressor and flip it upside
right?

Because it will shrink.
Surely, being a beer-head, you remember from Beer 101, on the
subject of 'laying them down' :
'You lay down at 2 with a 10, you wake up at 10 with a 2'
Now - why don't you just take some scrap wood and build
whatever support it needs ?
