Portalble beer faucet by

Update
So this project is nearing completion. I replaced the 2 liter tank with a 4 liter. I wouldn't go any bigger than that with the regulator at hand. One 16 gram co2 tube seems to run out just as the beer does (at 1.1 bar pressure).
Also bought a new Perlic faucet with flow control. Makes all the difference in the world.
As i write i am printing a Tactical nuclear penguin tap handle. The guy on the shirt in the link below.

I might post that in some other thing later on if it works out.
Last but not least i bought picnicking cooler (on made from fabric) and intend to convert it to fit my portable beer faucet.

So i spent new years in Las Vegas. On Freemont street i found this nice craft beer place. I think it was called banger brewing. Had a burger joint with a giant scale next door.
Anyways, i bought a stainless growler full of IPA. After Vegas we vent to San diego, Santa monica and Hollywood for a total of two weeks. I Kind of forgot about the growler.
I got home to Sweden and unpacked. And found my growler. Decided to make a project out of it. Having a stationary beer tap. And parts laying round i decided to make a portable one.
All parts are available on E-bay. I would recommend a faucet with flow control. I will replace mine. Even the keg itself is available (in different sizes).
1: Print the parts.
2: Drill 4 holes in the keg and mount parts.
3:the line from the CO2 regulator needs to end up on top of the beer in the tank (Smaller hole).
4: The other line needs to end up at the bottom of the growler. Solve it :)
Once build is complete. Fill up with cool beer and go for a picknick. The insulations was made from a sleeve of a jacket.
