Test fit with white sch40. Any feedback before I plumb the blue PVC? Left the left side long to add U/V.

Also, any suggestions for bracing the pvc to the wall or aluminum stand?
 
Are the dry fittings “bottomed out”? If not, there may be runs that are shorter than you want. You can measure the inside of the fittings to see how deep the pipe can be set in the fitting. You can also mark the pipes to know you are fully in the fitting. If you already know this, disregard.

Good use of unions for cleaning, etc.

It's bottomed out, as much as possible anyway. Thanks for the tip. I'll re-check and mark the blue pvc during the final test fit to make sure they everything aligns before I glue it. Bought 10 feet extra just in case.
