A good friend of mine and I took on this project a few months ago. Built the entire thing out of 1.5" steel square tubing. This thing could probably hold a car if we needed it to...Made it so we can disassemble the top tier from the bottom as well.
We used 3 banjo burners and plumbed all 3 together with black iron and have individual ball valves per burner , and we can also feed all the burners by 1 gas line...for now (shooting to hook it up to natural gas in the future)
Running a sweet 20 PSI Regulator so we can have an overkill of heat when needed. We also used laminate flooring that I had laying around for the shelves since laminate is an easy clean up. Still have some little things that we want to do (polish the kegs, heat resistant paint on certain areas etc; mainly cosmetic), but for the most part, its officially functional!
We did our first AG batch this weekend and (tried) to make a Terrapin Rye Pa, its in the fermenter now and justa' cookin'! Had a few hiccups in the process but hopefully they were not show stoppers, we shall find out in a few weeks!
