Ted, great work, similar to the
ones posted here, but with all the details, step by step pictures, tricks and traps that make it way easier for next person.
Love the draining board, better that my system where I just raise my hoop up out of the draining puddled whey. FYI, I built my followers out of
cheap cutting boards, but used neighbors band style jigsaw, even still I didn't cut perfect round followers. If you need a longer spacer after your follower than can of beans, I bought section of next size down PVC pipe from local Home Depot here in Houston Texas.
PS: Cute "priceless" daughter, ours girls are now teenagers.
