So you have given it a wider stance... Ascetically, that looks VERY pleasing to the eye! I am assuming you will have it on casters as well?
Nice job... Nothing like a good looking TIG weld.

My brew buddy's father-in-law was able to get a good deal on the stainless tubing. The stainless cost roughly $300. We haven't totaled all the components yet, but most of it has been funded via fantasy sport winnings. Nothing like a hobby supporting another hobby!
