denimglen - Here's a couple more shots that show the brackets a little better. I can get a closeup if this doesn't give enough detail. They're basically just L brackets that I cut slots in so that I could adjust the burner height. Dunno if I've got enough adjustment room or not yet, but was trying to leave myself some flexibility.
Bobby_M - You may be right - hopefully I'll know more this weekend. For what it's worth, I'm using keggles, so the bottom isn't quite as close as it would be with a flat-bottomed kettle.

Still working on a design for a real brewstand, so for now, I think I will re-read this thread and drool....

First off I need to thank ScubaSteve for teaching us that wood is not to be feared as a sculpture medium . My rig is made of cedar, and is a definite clone of his. Although not finished yet, is operationable:
Denimglen, I use two hurricane burners on either end of the rig (the low pressure version of the banjo).
The mounting was pretty easy using leftover bits of the angle iron:
Since it will be outside all year(except winter), I have plans to build a removable top that goes on when the kegs are put away, and converts it into a bench!

Lookin' good! I like the idea of turning your stand into a bench....it's all about stayin' off the SWMBO radar...
I also like how you mounted the Banjo.....they can be such a PITA to incorporate.....I know I stared at my rig for hours on end.
