Just wondering if anyone has photos of these. Specifically, when the releaser must be set down in the tank a ways. The bottom of mine (double vertical Bernard) is about 10" below the top, and I've never been real happy with the one I made. Should probably be stainless for when it gets submerged.

I think there is one in the Lapeirre catalogue.

My double sits on two boards on top of my 1000gal tank. Will eventually go with a stainless rack sometime. Sap splashes and the wood gets scummy through the year.....don't need more stuff to clean around here.

My re-leasers used to sit on wood also until I found some store shelving, display rack or however you might call it, that is made of wire mesh. The stuff I was able to find has a nice painted finish to it.

I've thought of taking my existing platform down to the local shop and have them pattern something after it. Just hope it would fit well when I actuallly try it. I hear you about having to clean the wood!

My double sits on a sheet of plywood (Non Food Grade:emb:) over the big tank amd the other sits on the tank cover ledge. Im no happy with either set up. Jim Shumacker is working on a solution for the dumping splash gards for me:)........................Hey Jim now your under the gun:lol:
