So I'm no welder, and was wondering how everyone had their single or 3 tier rig frames built. Any suggestions?
All my equipment frames are made out of extruded aluminum.
No welding required, just nuts and bolts.
Cheers,

So does an angle grinder with a cut-off wheel.I have no idea how to weld so I am stuck with the special extrusion fasteners.
All bolts , and T-nuts are hidden.
The non weld approach makes modification very easy.

Mine is 2X4's, plywood and cement backer-board. I used deck screws to fasten it all together. Electric brew kettle/HLT and a cooler MLT.
I ended up finding 3 friends with welders who were al lhappy to loan and show me, and help me practice, then I built the stand myself.
The best part is, most (but not all) of the materials were scraps just lying around his shop that he gave me for free.
