Right now I heat my HLT inside (elec urn) and mash inside; I then carry my full kettle outside and hoist it up onto a burner before gravity chilling into my fermenter. This means that the house smells like malt (suits me, but not the mrs so much), it always rains when I'm trying to chill my wort, and I can't brew when I'm home alone because it'd result in a broken back.
I'm moving house shortly and will now be able to brew in the garage instead of having to do the inside/outside dance. A mate has just bought a welder so wants some projects... I figured I'd get him to weld up a 3-tier downside.
Yesterday I came across a pump on eBay that can deal with boiling wort for only $130 delivered. This would mean I can build a single-level brewstand which I'd prefer.

Has anybody used one of these for home brewing? Is the fact that it's made of brass an issue?
