A lot of systems are built around the builders parts or brewing style (keggles, kettles, RIMS, HERMS) so a lot of systems will vary as far as blue prints go. If you look around at a lot of the DYI brew stand builds you will see some of the posters will provide a cut list.

Thanks, what about the pump systems. In your experience where should I start?

Thanks SBC.

What are the dimensions of your table and what is the diameter (approx) of your brew pots ?

Thanks !

Brewman, the table is 24"x72" and the kettles are Blichmann 15 gal, so they're 15.7" in diameter. I'm really happy with the sizing and amount of room I have to work with.

Thanks. I really appreciate the replies, SBC.

Do you think a 4 leg version of that table would be strong enough ? I ask because I'd like to put wheels on mine and its easier to do 4 legs than 6.

I can't believe how elegant your system is.

More questions if you will, SBC. I hope I am not overwhelming you.

I found that seller on eBay. There is another seller that sells a very similar table with 4 legs versus 6 for about the same money, but with free shipping. Care to comment why you chose one over the other ?

How tall is your backsplash ? The item page says theirs is 1.5", yours looks taller than that ?

It would be great if I didn't have to weld up a brewstand, though I am a good and able welder.
