Since I moved from extract about a year and a half ago I have been brewing on a 2 vessel stand that I made out of 1" stock. It worked great for the time being. A friend of mine is just getting into AG brewing and I offered to help him build a stand, after designing it I figured why not make one for myself as well. Like many on here I enjoy building stuff as much as I enjoy using it and brewing with it.
I already had the RIMS tube along with my control panel that I made as well so it was just a matter of swapping everything over once the stand was built. With 2 kids and the wife prego again I was only able to work on this thing a few hours here and there. This is it after about 2 weeks.

My mash tun will sit in the middle and is just the standard 10 gal cooler.

Here is the pump mount.

A shot of the rotating arm. The square stock looks like the ends are open but I welded caps on all ends of the stand.
