Waiting for a keg to blow so I can brew another batch is a drag.
Not waiting for a keg to blow so I can brew another batch means the backlogged beers go weird on me.

I also learned that when you really need a keg, that one you think is going to blow any minute will be bottomless.

I've learned that my beer really IS better than store-bought! I still am surprised with every batch...not sure if it is the freshness, the originality, or what...but it's damn good! I've learned that you don't have to know a whole lot about the process to make great beer. Just keep everything sanitized, hit your mash and fermentation temps within a couple degrees, and be patient. And I've also learned (at least for me) home brewing is cheaper!

I've learned to keep a number extra kegs, so you never have to wait for one to blow before brewing another batch.

I've also learned that "number" keeps going up.

+1 on that.

I have also learned that even when things don't go right, your beer can still turn out damn good

This is the first thing that came to mind when I saw the thread title. I smell my food now whereas I didn't do that before. And smelling is a big component of taste.

Did Biermuncher help you cut the plywood? Perhaps a bit of sanding would be a good idea to avoid splinters, and maybe redo a couple of those nails. Or just get a tetanus booster shot.

Seriously though, it looks like it will get the job done! It's a fairly ambitious hopper design, compared to some I've seen.
