I added the plate Chiller to the brew stand and painted it too.. I have a thread that describes how I made the Chiller mount.. http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/my-plate-chiller-mount-idea-260003/

The Chiller is from Keg Cowboy http://kegcowboy.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=323

Also you'll notice I use Cam Lock QD's on all my hose connections.. The company is right down the street from me http://store.proflowdynamics.com/modules/store/-Couplings-for-Homebrewers-_C12074.cfm
Bargain Fittings also sells them www.bargainfittings.com

by the way my Burners use these orifices from Brewers Hardware http://www.brewershardware.com/Valve-and-LPG-Orifice-for-BURN10.html
I didnt want to go thru that whole drilling experiment with the orifices.

Those are the same orifice's I used. They work great, plus they add another way to regulate the flame. Are you not installing any kind of bleeder valve for your pumps? I found that mine refuses to work without it. I'm using a chugger though.

I've got what I call "burps"
They're in-line valves that have the cable connected to them to release inline air. I think maybe called a purge valve. I got them at McMaster Carr

here's that Valve..http://www.mcmaster.com/#catalog/118/428/=g8corx
Its a brass ball valve with guage port. I had to buy the little 1/4"port valve..You pull the cable and release the air in the "uphill" pump housing. Here it is.. http://www.mcmaster.com/#drain-handle-stop-cocks/=g8csvd

Also I worked on my exhaust idea all weekend no pics yet and no boil test. but I can say all tests worked onm my exhaust idea, i just need to get some pics
