Parts suggestion for drilling into lid of mash tun.

[TommyBoy]

In case anyone is interested...

If you ever decide to incorporate your sparge arm into your lid you can pick up a variety pack of o-rings at Lowes for a couple bucks and they work great as a stop and additional brace for the arm after you drill your hole. The below pic has two 3/8" o-rings as the top and bottom stops for the arm and there is one 1 1/2" o-ring that secures the arm to the lid handle.

Good Info. Gives me some food for thought.

Did you build that sparge arm yourself or did you buy it?

Bought it from Northern Brewer.
