After seeing Deer's rig I thought hey why not start a thread like they have on the big board. I know there's alot of sweet rigs out there so you should share.  Mine is anything but that but it makes beer.  Here it is:

Old picture but the intent is the same.  Freezer is moved and dedicated to hops, new pump has been installed and the old one moved to a spare. Oh and the TV has been upgraded.

Maybe I can get a few pics this weekend.  I don't think I've posted it in action.  Some gravity, some pumped, all old school electric.

Even though my pic inspired the thread... here it is.  Again, what you can't see is the table with the pump and a bit of piping, along with the CFC mounted to it.

 

The concrete masonry blocks was a very cheap solution to a potentially expensive and very vexing problem that I was having in terms of height adjustments.

You have more faith in plastic than I do. I don't think I personally would feel comfortable with all that weight on top of there.

I have a 10 gallon round cooler mash tun, a cheap 9 gallon stainless kettle, a smaller kettle for a HLT and an immersion chiller that I use a bottling bucket to gravity feed ice water through. It's so ghetto I never even thought of taking a picture of it.
