    Default Adjustable arch legs

    Has anyone made adjustable legs for their oil tank arch. I'm think of using scaffolding adjustable jacks because I have a set.

    mine has a coupling welded to it and a long bolt that can be threaded in or out to bring it up or down.

    I welded a small plate to a bolt head to make the feet. Then welded a nut to the bottom of the leg.
    2021 - Year one. 15 taps using 5/16" and drop tube into buckets. Homemade barrel evaporator with 2 steam trays.
    2022. 32 taps. Added AUF.
    2023. 51 taps. Ditched the steam pans for an 18x22 flat pan.
    2024. 56 taps. Built a proper evaporator to fit the 18x22 flat pan and 1 steam pan.
    2025. 62 taps.
