Default My First Attempt at a Single Tier Brew Stand

Needed to post these pictures of the stand I just finished. I just got done testing the burners, controllers & pumps. Everything went great, I'm now waiting for my grain grinder & grain to arrive to get started.
Any input on faults or improvements will be welcome, Thank you

Looks really clean. I like how you did the wires in the frame. Do you mind giving me a little info on your control box? Make and model? I need to upgrade mine in the near future. Also I have my pump heads rotated so the inlet is facing down and the outlet is facing up. Might not help cause I noticed your mounts will be in the way but if you have any issues with keeping a prime, remember that.

Dude, I would be making sound effects every time I flipped one of those switches. That's just bad ass.

that is the Death Star of single-tier brew stand.

i'm very, very jealous over here.

Sorry, I probably wasn't to clear. What box is that, that you put your electronics into.

+1, I was thinking just the same looking at your NICE build. A nice one, good job there!
