Here's mine, almost done, doing the natural gas plumbing on sunday. Tomorrow I'm going to chicago just to drink good beer all day, then I need to figure out what paint to use as the grill paint I bought to paint it with tonight seems to be problematic for others, ie rusting through after a year or so.

Started 3 tier, still is 3 tier but with a dump style mash tun.

It's a work in progress. Here it is on the first day of the build. The burners mount on clips directly below the kegs. The project is nearly complete and is scheduled to brew on saturday.

I'm digging the tippy dumpy design. Doesn't look very 3-tier, though. Looks pretty much single tier unless my eyes deceive me.

Also, is your pump mounted in that 1st pic? It looks like it's just hanging there.

Ice cream machine stirrer motors work great too. Lots of torque, and a slow enough turn speed to not aerate your mash.

I love his stirrer setup though, very cool all stainless like that.
