Not sure if serious.

I understand that you want an ice chest on legs so that you might not want to bend down and pull out a cold beer. I also understand you may want to have an ice chest that looks better than plain white sitting on the porch.

But is such an ice box really worth the time, money, space and materials? I just don't see the need, but to each his own.

That's why I said I would give him $15 for it

The ice chest is worth $30 and the wood has nominal value. I'd bust it up, fill the ice chest with frosties and make a bonfire with the wood. Not a bad time for $30.

That thing would look badass with LSU branded into it

And I'll have you know that's an $80 ice chest buddy.

That's just a pussy version of a pirogue filled with beer

for $150, they could have given you a nicer drip bucket.

Or you could have gotten some sod

I'm going to make one of those this weekend. I have some old cypress but I'm going to pressure wash, stain, and seal it before I use it.

Aha grasshopper

The ones I see in stores are metal lined. If I make one, I'm using that igloo or coleman(can't remember) that did so well in the cooler shoot out.
