Inspired by Partridge and his timber tap stand and others and the fact that more pals were looking for beer for their parties and I was only giving them keg taps.
Take :
1 x old TV stand
1 x 400mm x 200mm x10mm sheet of acrylic plastic
(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160901/f9351231e5fec081874b3ae16a9caafe.jpg)
Spacing the taps was a bit of a pain especially the Pegas one.
Needed to be sturdy for bottling and swinging out of flow control.
Base is heavy glass and back is Acrylic (PMMA) isn't great with chemicals so we will see how she fares longer term, I'll replace it with shiny if she's not up to it.

Very nice. Remind me of my first tap tower, made from black plastic guttering. Practical and I still have it for emergencies that never happen :)

You could show extreme faith in your build, and actually mount a TV on the stand!
That way, you could sneek the taps into the living room with out anyone noticing (apart from the tubing, regulators, kegs, freezer - but apart from that. Also if it's a nice slim flat screen mounted flat on the wall, that may present a challenge!)

I could just drill through the outside wall with all the bits outside and have a couple of taps in the living room, she'd love that!
