So we were all sitting around the TV last night trying to think of cool ideas for the NFL/NCAA seasons. While we are all huge fans of our teams (which will remain nameless :) ) there was one thing that was constantly getting in the way.........ARGUMENTS!!! LOL. While some of this statement is true and some a stretch of the truth, one cannot argue that most conversations regarding your favorite team alongside someone else's usually ends up in a heated discussion of some sorts. Further more, finding an item that is able to have the functionality we are all looking for yet being able to exist for every team is difficult as well. Ladies and Gentleman, LOOK NO FURTHER!!! We actually came up with this idea on our own and our friends over at thisoldhouse.com had a similar idea that had been documented and put into video form for all to see. Feast your eyes on this bad boy!!! A cedar cooler for your favorite team(s). At Kings of Salvage, we provide all the necessary materials in order to get this project rolling and completed by this weekend. Theres no reason to drop your stashed cash on new wood at your local store when salvaged materials will give you that special touch NOONE else will have. Dont have time for a project like this?

Ready for a cold one? Not so fast. It will taste even better after you build this beauty for your deck or patio. We sized it around an off-the-shelf 50-quart plastic cooler. Made of cedar, the box features a brass spigot to take the heavy lifting out of draining melted ice, a stainless-steel continuous hinge for the lid, and a classic bottle opener right out front, sparing you that frantic hunt for a way to open your frosty beverage.
