I believe Scotty put an angle iron in a doorway and hung it from that if I remember. Seemed like a good idea. Maybe he can way in on this

I had a strong angle bracket made then added pulleys and a hook. I placed the bracket high enough so I could get a 6 gallon carboy under the tube. I also had a needle valve added so I could adjust the flow rate. A piece of stainless screening is in the area that holds the paper filter so that the flow is not restricted to the little hole.

I cut the stainless screen to just fit inside the washer in the valve mechanism

I had rick also add this so I could hang the unit from the angle bracket.[/I]
