Ferment chamber is still available. $20 and you can have it (covers the sheet of metal cost). It may fit in an suv if not I have a van if you are close by. The other stuff I got rid of last night. I was just about to update thread. Will post pictures when I get home.

2 6.6 gallon glass demi john w/ handles (never used) and air locks
3 modified mr beer kegs (stainless plugs instead of spout w/ custom stainless cane with scratch proof...
