Roll around cart build

I have been trying in the last few years to make my brewing easier but better. I bought the Mash&Boil and moved me to Total AG and have been making some of the best beers I've ever done, but still had to handle 5 gals and I like a 5 gal batch. What is the answer? A roll around cart with pumps.

Some old bed rail angle iron, cheap to find, welds good, strong but kinda hard to drill. Cut and cleaned.

Now ready to use, can now run the pump with a switch, roll it to my sink for a cool down and then pump into the fermenter. Now am working on getting the second pump plumbed. Them SS fittings and the good high temp. hose are not cheap.

Very cool build, very cute grandson. I have been pondering easier ways to move wort and beer. I have a 15-16 gallon kettle in which I make ten gallon batches. It has a valve to pour into the fermenters (I split the batches into 5s). Because I have to deal with steps, no rollers. I have found it easier to carry a full bucket with two hands, one on the handle and one underneath.

TY and yes GFI. I don't mind electric, but don't like getting shocked.
