Ok, so originally this started as a thread about materials for a brew sculpture. Considering I've moved on to a more "critique my design" stage I thought it could use a new thread.
Original Thread:

So after some designing I came up with what I think will be a final design. Not all of the fixtures are complete (like sight glasses or thermometers) but enough for me to get the layout down. I also realized that I did almost all the hoses in 3/4" radius instead of 3/4" diameter! But I only figured it out after doing almost all of the stages for the hoses so if I have spare time I'll go back and do it.
For those of you that have Sketchup here is the link to the model in the 3D warehouse:
Single Tier Brewstand by Ender - Google 3D Warehouse
I have attached the 5 screenshots of the rig for you guys to see. Below on the right is the propane tank. Bottom left is a cooler that I will run a coil through an ice bath before it goes to the plate chiller.
Let me know if you guys have any critiques or advice!
