    Dispensing for the wedding

Not a big deal if you are pouring a lot if...

    I need an engineer!

    I think 20* and I sunk them 3 ft in concrete. I used turnbuckles on both ends and on the deadman. Have got to get my string up this weekend, the chinook already has 4 or 5 feet of growth

    I need an engineer!

    I did something similar, my poles are splayed out at a 20 degree angle, I used turnbuckles to connect the support cable to the poles and another turnbuckle down to a deadman. I priced aircraft cable and holy crap expensive. I ended up getting a stainless dog run cable from walmart for under...

    Dual input, 4 element question

    Why couldn't you run two elements off one ssr/contacter, like wall outlets are done. Wire size and supply would need to sized appropriately... Say 2 1500 watts and wire sized for 25 amps, would prob be better to just run a 50 amp 240v.

    Beginner Welder Mistake??

    +1, this is your best bet. Let's say at extream you have 10 gal in the hlt, 10 in the mash, and 10 in the boil and 30 lbs grain, 50 lbs in equip.... That is less than 350 lbs.... I would think good tack welfare would hold that
