My buddy did this with his 10G MLT, to add to reliability, he shoe-horned a couple 1" sections of CPVC an inch or so from the T-fitting of the manifold. The were drilled with some 1/4" holes to ensure drainage, and did so with those 1" sections in 2" spacing(roughly, from memory) all the way around. He uses a wooden mash paddle and has never had an issue.

I love the design. Can I get all this stuff at home depot? Is it safe?

I couldn't find it at my local HD, but I got it all at Lowes. You can go to the website and search on cpvc fittings and see if it's available for pick up. Just make sure you get "C"PVC, as it can handle temps up to 200 F.
