This has been in the planning stages for a long time. No thanks to my past place of employment, I recently had the time to start putting the new brew trailer together. This project was done on budget and without any of the neat tools that Yuri has(so jealous). No offense intended Yuri, you have mad skills. All comments, including "You suck"(I know there will be some) are appreciated.
Ready to roll. All kegs are bolted to square frames and hinged on the outside. thanks for the idea Bobby_M. there is a jack on all four corners for leveling of the rig regardless of surface its on. Sheet metal was installed under the brew frame for easy cleanup of occasional boilovers. The BATF can attest to what occasional means. 
Beirmuncher is not the only one that can do ghetto. Here I used a piece of rain gutter as pump shielding. This was the easiest part of the whole project, thin aluminum cuts and drill so easy. The electric cords will go under the trailer for the present until the money begins to flow again. Then it will be boxed with automated burner control. Pump control will still be manual, after all I will need something to do other than watch the BBQ. The gas manifold will change at that time also.
Space for the BBQ pit I mentioned. I already have it just need another week to figure mounting and do it. The space up by the keggles will hold my motorized grain cart for transport. It will be moved off the trailer before burner lighting.

Burner and shield combo. Yes, that is a cornie cut up for shielding. LHBS gave me one that had a hole in it. I got all three shields out of one keg.
Tippy dump in action. All credit for the idea goes to Bobby_M.
Hlt side. Water filter base mounted near the hlt. the base will have a tee going into the filter so I will have a hose for filtered water(brewing) and a non filtered hose for washing.
This final shot is what it will look like from my lawn chair. The jacks will be down but you get the idea. 10 minute setup and I'm hoping for less than 20 min cleanup.
This is still a work in progress but since its now usable I thought a bit of porn was in order. For those who were expecting brew babes from the title, stay out of my gallery.

Thanks guys. Its amazing what you can do with a $250 trailer, a $100 Harbor Freight wire feed, die grinder and 20 years worth of accumulated sh!t from the garage.

You know, that rig would look awesome in my driveway! Bring it up, and we'll see how it looks. I'll provide the beer and grain.
By the way, you suck!
