Interesting, how could a cooler be turned into a freezer? Fan forced cooling still?   No frost buildup?

Glen:
If you look at the pictures there are 4 covers on top.  I will dedicate 25% or 1 cover to be my freezer.  I will insulate it separately and will have its own condesere deck.  I could use any help in the design as I know almost nothing about refrigeration systems.  I was thinking of converting one of my original decks to "freeze".  I think it would take more then a different thermastat to convert.  If anyone has some ideas, please let me know.

It would need a low temp compressor with matching evaporator coil and expansion valve, different t-stat, and some kind of defrosting. As in defrost heaters and time clock, etc, to keep coil clear from ice build-up. Also some kind of heater in the door frame to prevent it from freezing the gaskets to the box. Would be an interesting challenge. You have a nice looking piece of equipment.
