The beginning of the build

I recently started build a RIMS system.
I will document the process here just in case anyone is interested.
I have to give a shout out to my friends Gary and Steve for getting me back interested in brewing again and for helping me decide to build the RIMS system. Also for the use of shop space. LOL
Here are some pictures of the basic frame as of one day of cutting and welding.
I am NOT an expert welder. But the joints seem to be holding!
