I used 2 pieces of 1x6. Spray painted them black and used bolts and washers to bind them together thru the unistrut. Then I bolted the pumps to the wood using the holes in the base of the pumps.

Mounting the pumps vertically is huge. Intake is on the bottom - discharge on the top. This way, when you open the valve on any pot, because it's up higher it automatically fills the entire pump housing - never cavitates. No issue from the heat of the center burner.

Well it's been a few months since I bought my strut from Gifty, got it home, de-galvanized it, painted it with 2000 degree Rust-Oleum paint. I've brewed on it 3 times so far and the paint looks to be in great shape. It is a bit duller where the pots come in contact with the strut - but it's...

Ok guys - here are some initial pics of strut pieces after I de-galvanized them and then painted and then baked them according to the instructions by Rust-Oleum. I still have to de-galvanize the long pieces/ paint them and then I'm going to try to bake them by progressively sliding them through...

I don't think we are supposed to be soliciting businesses on here. There is a web site and it only contains two words concatenated together and the dot com. Those two words are strut and stands.

Are you asking where I got the kit from? Gifty74 has a business that he sells all the parts pre-cut.

Just bought a kit from Gifty. Thanks for all of the advice Steve. So I've taken all of the galvanization off of the pieces and fittings. Guys, early in this thread others talked about how dangerous this is - trust me, they were right. I used a 2 foot piece of 5" Sch 30 PVC with a cap on the...

Ok - I've spent the last 3-4 hours pouring through this - great stuff by the way - thanks to all the contributors. I have just a few questions that weren't obvious to me as I was reading through this. a) I plan to do the capped pvc pipe w/vinegar or muratic acid to take the coating off. I...

I've been following this thread since last year and have read all of the pages many times - just brewed my 25 gallon batch yesterday. Threw the ginger and cinnamon sticks in with about 40 mins left in the boil. My brewhouse efficiency went up after I re-milled the grain, my OG was 1.088. My...

I've got a keggle that has 3 stainless steel 1/2" couplings welded in. One for a stainless steel ball valve, one for a 3" thermometer and one for a sight glass. Oh and its polished. I've been using it for a HLT and want to sell it but I'm struggling with how much to price it at. I want to...

Ryan - nice job on the build and the pics. Thanks for the lead on the brew pots too. I have to ask though, I went to that Instawares site and they have a few varieties of the 80 qt pots, can you tell me which one you specifically purchased and why that one over the others? Also where did you...

Are you kegs still for sale? Please send me a PM if they are. Thanks Terry

Will you part them out? I just need one. I've polished up my other two you have, aren't they a thing of beauty. Send me a PM if you will. Thanks

Tulsabrewdaddy - you said solder? I can't weld, but I can solder. Where did you learn to do that? Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks

Sorry one other question - you didn't specifically say that you used silicone on the 2 d strips that you put on the lid - so I assume that you just used the adhesive on the strip - after pulling the tape off or did you put silicone on those too? Thanks again

Allclene - thanks
