I used round tubing. I had access to a JD Squared Model 3 bender: https://www.jd2.com/t-bendercomparison.aspx and that allowed me to make a stand fairly easily using techniques similar to roll cage fabrication for buggies/jeeps, take a look...

My brother-in-law is a sand rail guy and he picked up a JD-Squared tubing bender and a Miller 140 mig welder over the years. He has been very generous in lending them to me from time to time. I've fabricated stuff for car projects and other things, I don't claim to be good at it but I have...

Yeah, I get that a lot, but thanks... The pumps are now vented out the back of the box and the sight glasses will have the eye bolts and grommets installed this weekend, then I will cut them down. Its a pain to flip over the kegs for washing with the poly tube sticking straight up. It...

This is my first post on HBT. I've been lurking for quite some time, mostly in the DIY forum. I've been brewing since 1995 usually 10 gallon batches using different arrangements of 3 tier systems based on everything for saw horses to step ladders and often hanging kettles from the 2x6...
