How stable is the stand with the castors on it like that. When I built mine I worried about putting castors on and it being unstable with weight on it. I am planning on puttin my in a semi permanent location, but I was wondering anyway.

My guess is that the brutus is plenty stable.

My system is not nearly as stout looking as his but holds 3 kegs and 250lbs of water (31 gals.) without issue.

It is rock solid! However, I made the height on the castors adjustable in case the stand wasn't square... didn't even need them.

Lars don't you mean if the floor is not flat-that stand of yours looks perfectly square

Tim,
That's the same unit Dogfish Head used for their first 100 batches or so and they used to brew 3 times a day on it so you need to get brewing! (It's in the new issue of Zymrugy as an ad for Sabco)

I'll be brewing batch #3 on Sunday.

Yes, it is very square. I was commenting more on my own ability to hold the metal square as you welded it than anything else. I'm amazed that my patio is square itself!
