Hey Guys,
Doing some avid researching into building my own still. Love the site what a wealth of fantastic information!
I originally was just going to buy a still from a retailer but after seeing everyone on here say DIY was the way to go
I decided to build. I can now see why.
Hope to soak up as much knowledge and read as much as I can over the next while!
Dreaming of a nice VM setup and searching for supplies.
Cheers,

Welcome!
Make sure that after you build your new rig (congrats on taking the plunge) you go through the mandatory cleaning process. Steam, vinegar and water, and a sacrificial run. You'll have stuff clinging to your still that you don't want in your insides.
