Ok, i want to build one this weekend, but i need a parts list and can't find anything worth a shite.
I want to make one out of a 10 gallon water cooler.
anybody have any plans/materials list for one?

Do you have an idea about what type of straining mechanism you want to use? For instance I use a false bottom that I bought from MoreBeer I believe. Other people use the stainless steal mesh tubing.
Once you decide that the only other thing you really need is the valve to go on the cooler. Once again I use one that I bought from a homebrew supply store, probably Brewstock. It's a weldless stainless ball valve.
