Bracing/supporting a tall column
Posted: Wed May 13, 2020 11:08 pm
Hi there,
Almost ready to run my just completed 3"CCVM and I'm looking for a way to stop it tipping over if it gets knocked.
The column is almost 2m tall, plus the keg it sits on. When I clamped it all together last night it was so tall I realised I'll have to move it away from the walls and into the middle of the shed under the ridge for clearance.
I was thinking of suspending a light chain from the rafters and hooking it to the column, possibly between the tee and the 90degree bend. I hope this won't generate an annoying rattle during the run!
Anyone have any neat solutions?
What have you guys done?
Cheers,
Tenorbrew
