Looking for some input

Hi all!
Looking for a little advice, tips or general help on my oh-so slow all grain build. I was fortunate enough to come across some Sanke kegs and have slowly started planning out what to do with them. I may have jumped the gun a bit and cut the tops off of two of them before coming across some threads on the brewtalk site about using upside down keggles. I still have a third keg that I haven't had a chance to cut yet.
Where I'm looking for help is with that third keg; has anyone seen, read or built their own inverted keg into a mash lauter tun? My thinking is to use some NPT fittings on the Sanke top (now the bottom), and then a screen of some sort over the domed bottom.
Additionally, if folks wouldn't mind sharing what types of fittings they've used on their keggle builds, I would be great appreciative. Happy brewing!
