Default Build My Own Or Brew Magic Stand ?

i was just gunna buy a stainless steel prep tabel for $300 and put 3 Blichmann burners $417 across it and use that as my stand. Run the propane tank to each burner and done..

Cost would be $717

then i saw brew magic sells the stand with gas fittings and burners..
$1119.00 Shipped Comes with all the burners installed and gas fittings installed and what not.. 2 6" burners and 1 10" burner..

I don't mind spending an lil bit extra.. do you think its worth it ? or just getting fancy ?

If you can get quality without reinventing the wheel it's often worth the extra $$

Do you have a link to that stand? I can't find a stand for that price on their website.

There are quite a few companies out there that will make you a stand for less than brew magic. Just quick search found this http://www.brewersequipment.com/Brew-Stands_c_1.html

http://www.brewmagic.com/products/brew-magic-frame-2

there is the link to the brew magic stand $1119 shipped..

brewers equiptment looks good stainless steel also and they can add banjos and march pump installed.. not bad..

as for synergybrew i saw them before but didn`t really like the set up and thought once i added everything would be around the same price..
