Does anyone have any pics of the tank changing racks that are at Ginnie? I am going to build one and would like to see a picture.

Thanks, Brian

estimated price for materials-$50.00, ps,If you cant find pressure treated lumber[its being phased out]and buy the new yellerwood,its replacement,be sure to use hotdip galvanized or stainless fasteners.The copper in the wood will attack and corrode other metal fasteners.It will eat a hole in tin in a few months if a barrier isnt between the two.Lots of people will be finding this out the hard way and i predict theyll be lawsuits over it.The yellerwood website warns of this but how many will go there before using their product?

Those would be nice to upgrade sites like Cow and Cathedral when it is ready.

$50.00 ???? I will soon post pictures of what can be compared to the famous $50,000.00 gold plated toilet seat.. It is almost done, but it ended up and was more than your "estimated price for materials-$50.00.
Stay tuned ---

Not sure I get your humor,and I realize you didnt ask for material cost but I do that sort of thing for a living and if you build one like the picture posted thats what youll spend.I could break down the cost of each board for you with the price of each but wont bother.

The owner of one of the shops I work in was talking to a guy that built things, and he said he'd like him to build a tank tumbler. The guy said he would. They didn't agree on a price, but the guy said he'd "treat him right."

It ended up being the fanciest tumbler I've ever seen. To make it fancier, it would have to be gold plated.

$800.00. Ouch.
