I'd paste in some pics, but it seems my only options are uploading from an online source; don't know how to drag something in from my desktop if that's even possible.
@Megary, now you got me thinking!! HahaI love that top picture.
The cords confused me, and I originally thought that the bag was rigged to the garage door so that when you closed the garage door the bag was lifted out of the kettle.
Got it, thanks! I was trying the image button, which only allows inserting a URL.
Here are the pics.

DIY BIAB drainer thingy for indoor brewing. No more spilled wort all over the place.

Your DIY drainer thingy looks pretty custom. You definitely have some metalworking skills!
I did the same thing a few years ago with a tapperd waste bucket it fit in the hole I cut out of my keg lid.Thanks. It's my "rocket drainer." Just a food-grade bucket, cut off, with a bunch of 1/4" holes drilled in the bottom. SS bolts, nuts and fender washers and galvanized sheet steel supports.
It solved the problem of a bag of 10-12 lbs wet grain not fitting in a regular colander and wort dripping down the sides of the kettle. Plus, the "rocket" sits with its bottom only an inch below the kettle rim, versus the colander which sits much deeper (usually into the wort).
