Now that Biermuncher's gone all fancy smancy and glossy magazine quality with his projects, I figured there was a vacancy in the "hack and slash" method of DIY builds.
Yooper so wonderfully gifted me with a corona mill, and I decided to throw together a little "station" for it.
(And before you dis the corona, I betcha don't realize that Charlie Papazian has been using the same Corona Mill he started doing allgrain with and HE gets 87% efficieny...so bite me )
Anyhoo, this is what I came up with.
Living in my loft I have very few tools, and little space for them...about the only power tool I have is a drill.
One of my ubiquitous soysauce buckets is the base of it. The mill sits on a cheap pressboard shelf I got at the hardware that I drilled through with a holesaw. A folger's plastic coffee container is used to keep the grain from flying all over the place (it's glued in place with "amazing goop")
The bucket is notched (using a coping saw) to seat the shelf into.
