Nice work Eric,

Way too many safety devices on though, let the sparks fly!

Thanks, and welcome mrbowenz. I used to be more nonchalant, but after my LASIK I've gotten better about the eye protection. I guess that just made me think about it more. The ear protection is borrowed. That cutoff saw is loud in my garage. The gloves? Well, I grabbed one too many pieces of hot metal. That just leaves the occasional bit of hot steel on my arm. -Eric

There is nothing wrong with being safe. It sucks getting a chunk of metal stuck in your eye. Costly too. I also play in a band, so I totally agree with the hearing protection, and the gloves. Need my fat sausage fingers to play the Sax! Looks great so far foo!
Prost!

Sorry--new floors in the house, friends' wedding one weekend, camping the next, vacation for a week. I'm hoping to get back at this at the end of September.

In other news, mrbowenz, someone else was asking about EuroTanks in another thread. I mentioned your name there. Here it is:

There are still a few crosspieces to be added on, but I want to figure out exactly how I'm going to mount motors and the control panel first. You should be able to click on the photos for larger versions.

I'm planning keggles for the HLT and BK, but I sized the stand to handle the 30 gallon BoilerMaker some day. I can dream.
