Pump Stand finished

Finished this a while ago and just haven't gotten around to posing the pictures for it.  The pumps are two Chugger pumps.  I basically copied what Kal and others on The Electric Brewery have done.  I started with a piece of 3/4" MDF for the base and added an additional piece on each side for a 'foot'.  Then I added 3 rails to it for the pumps to go inside.  Like this....

I measured and drilled holes for the pump mounting and the handles and then painted it a metallic Silver with a clear gloss over it.

I added some non slip rubber feet to the bottom to help keep it steady and reduce vibration.

I added the fittings to the pump and extended the cord a bit and added some cable sleeve and the plug ends.

I also added grommets to the mounting holes to reduce vibration.

I then added the handles and mounted the pumps.

 

I secured the power cables to the pump stand and added some 24ga stainless steel plates to cover the pumps and protect them from possible spills.

 Above is the finished pump stand.  Let me know if you have a questions!
