My new parrot

Aside from stills, much equipment is involved in the process of distillation.

I started my first parrot today but I need to pick up some more 1/4" tubing. Did this much in about 30 minutes

I have a surplus yard down the road from me. Cost about ten bucks.
All the other stuff I had given to me on jobsites.

That's handy! btw, where's the input? (ie., where the distillate goes "in". I assume that's what the additional 1/4" is for?

Damn, that's sweet. I just made my first parrot yesterday and was going to post pictures of it, but after seeing yours, I don't want anyone to look at mine. That kind of sounded like a junior high locker room didn't it? Anyway, that's some nice shiny metal.

Thanks for the compliment swamp but I can't take all the credit I just copied the design. Go ahead and show your pics and don't be embarassed it will give us somthing to compare your work to in the future. You should look up my first still it aint so purdy.
