Andy, What size is that shelving? That is not a bad idea for a light, portable system. If I can find that type of shelving cheap somewhere...

IIRC, it's a variation on this shelving (below). Basically, I just wandered around lowe's until something worked. Brewed on that system for 2 or 3 years and enjoyed it. All that baker's rack shelving is rated at something like 200+ lbs (check, don't trust me), which is way more than a 5 gallon batch.

Ok thanks. What did you do to mount the wheels?

Also an option at lowe's. I copied the idea from the morebeer sculptures and only put them on one side so I can move it like a wheelbarrow, but it's relatively stable otherwise. I still locked the casters while in use.

It's the patriotic hop grenade wallpaper on the touch screen control panel that makes that stand art. Just beautiful
