[Alberg30] icebox rebuilding...

[Wally Moran]

I'm currently struggling with rebuilding an icebox - otherwise known 
as fitting a very large square peg into a much smaller square peg 
hole with oddly configured sides, none of which match the shape of 
the new icebox so as to have an adequate quantity of cold 
motivational product for crewmembers.
Well, the box is in position and I'm now at the point where I will 
have to install a new countertop with a lid. Any ideas on how to 
construct this item and how to insulate the lid so that it remains 
flush with the counter?
Should I a) simply cut out the lid, hinge it, attach pink high 
density foam to it and leave it at that? Or, b) not use a hinge, put 
insulation to the edges of the lid and lift it straight out without 
hinges for better insulating?
If I go with a), how do I manage the edges of the lid so as to open 
the lid yet still have insulation right to the edges?
Bear in mind, I'm no carpenter...any and all ideas welcome.
