I've been reading the forums for a few years now but never really had much to contribute because I still consider myself a novice brewer. However, recently I decided to start a little project and I thought I'd share... So here is my version of a Top Tier Brew Stand. This is by no means as glamorous as the Blichman, or may of you guys stands, but so far it appears very functional. I consider this a Ribeye Top Tier on a Ramen Noodle budget. My total investment in this including the stand, burners, gas and water manifold, shelves and hoses is about $400, about half of the price of the base stand form Blichman. But definitely not as pretty. I do not have any welding skills, so the only welds I have are the shelves and I subbed those out to a co-workerr in exchange for some home brew.
I started with the Faztek 3030 T-slot on amazon (free shipping with amazon prime) only I got it for $90. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008MQA482/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20
I had an old storage piece from work that I cut up to make the legs, but bought some flat iron for the louvers. The shelves are SuperStrut, I needed two 10 foot pieces at $20 a piece, and used a chop saw blade on my mitre saw to cut them.
