just mixed this all up tonight so interested to see how it goes

I really like Woodford reserve and I have bought a 750ml for about 28 dollars

I fixed my problem for sealing the garbage can and I ran water and vinegar through the still last night and found only two small leak which is where i used the paste and where I used the keg adapter with the rubber o-ring which next time will use paste there to help it from not leaking. If I could d...

no this setup will work good, i'll be running it outside and then breaking it down and putting it in my garage. I could probally keep it outside all the time but don't want to chance it with the neighbors just in case they were to see through the woods

I cut the lynnarm a little I couldn't take it being so dam long my new problem is the worm I gotta figure out a better way to secure it so the epoxy doesn't break loose but I'll get it figured out. I got the keg fitting perfect on the burn after I welded some flat bar to it, now just gotta do somet...

Thanks guys, Yeah I just have the lynarm just sitting in there and want to try using that paste for those two connections and see how it goes. I do feel it's really on the long side and would like to take a foot outta it. Just have to run it and see.

Thanks
Chris

Haven't run it, I gotta chop on my burner some to get the keg to fit on it. I was just kinda wanting people opinions on the pipe going to the doubler if I should cut it down shorter or not?

one more

Hopefully the picture works. I'm open to all opinions on this one. I've thought maybe I should cut the pipe from the boiler to the doubler but yall tell me what ya think. I was gonna run water through it but realized it won't fit my burner so tomorrow will be doing some cutting of the burner I guess...

dude. Be careful what you are doin. You will get into dangerous territory. All my friends are federal agents...just kidding, only one is a DEA agent. Didn't mean to make it sound like I got a hundred people banging on my door. Mainly just about 5 friends that keep coming back for more and two are p...

thanks

flange is complete and I couldn't be happier with it. I ran it on the belt sander to get a really smooth flat surface and it's dam near perfect. I must say my soldering and copper fabrication for my very first time has come out truly great. I guess those tig welding skills came in handy. I'm pretty ...

I'm off to go buy a mandral for my hole saw and get another reducer since i realized macmaster-carr sent me one to big but I think what I'm gonna do will work just fine, it's a little more work but it'll work. My flange seemed to come out pretty dang good and heating it up to it was red hot sure did...

hahaha sorry couldn't help to laugh, I'm curious though I didn't see on the easy flange or should I say I need to read a bunch more and not look at just the pictures but was wondering did you add a rubber gasket to this when you finish it?? and looks like in the pictures I see it isn't really hammer...

thanks still crazy I never really thought of using a dam T haha but when i took a look I don't think i can get the size i need. I'm just gonna go as planned and hopefully it will work out. I found on here someone making there own flange so gonna give that a try tomorrow, just bought some 4 gauge cop...

thanks I'll type that name in and do a search. I maybe buy another dam flange

Ok flange on the thump keg i kinda goofed on I forgot it measured exactly 2 inch when the OD on the pipe is 2-1/8. I've got enough money in this thing and don't want to pay for another dang keg adapter so I'm wondering is there a way I could some how make some short slits in the pipe and give it a c...

Thanks guess I'll just have to see when I build it.

Vey nice work

http://homedistiller.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=18331&start=0 take a look here. This is what I am planning. Sounds close to what you are looking for. I'm curious of this I see in the picture this person has there output exiting out the side of the pipe towards there condenser now wouldn...

Thanks guys for the links, that actually gave me another idea for the 1 inch pipe that goes down to the bottom of the double i'll just drill a bunch of holes like this guy did. I like that idea allot, well guess I'll be ordering my copper then. I was thinking of one way but the second link I'll do i...

Someone has told me a way to make my thump keg and i wanted to get other peoples thoughts on this. I have gone back and forth so many times and wanted to clear this up before I start ordering my copper. I'm not sure how to draw a picture post of it on here so will try and explain it the best that I ...

Tell you guys what, as I sit here siping some woodford reserve which is very good stuff I can see my new hobby becoming an obsession. After haveing my first quart of shine man I really don't want this store bought stuff anymore. This is gonna become a kickass hobby. I can't thank you guys enough for...

I called a couple places today and no luck well they told me to call back tomorrow which I will. Found a plumber supply place near me which will have to pass by tomorrow and see what they got. I figure whatever size I use I'll just use a cut off wheel to cut the pipe. Put a pipe wrap on it draw a li...

Goinbroke2 thanks this guy wasn't adding any oak chips to his shine. I think it's from doing the recipe he did and cutting the recipe in half when maybe he should have done the entire recipe and spent about 12 hours running the entire batch and not recycling it or mayeb not as much anyway. What I'm ...

Thank you

That's probably DWV copper pipe (Drain Waste Vent). It's the thinnest of all the various grades, and meant for open (not pressurized) systems for drainage, etc. The good part is...it's lighter than K, L, or M copper, and much cheaper — particularly in larger diameters. But, you might also need to b...

Thanks guys, this has really been bugging me and wasn't sure if it was safe to use or not. So if it is then I guess I'll be hunting down some 2 inch pipe then.

SuburbanStiller what did you pay for a 10ft stick of 2 inch??

Thanks
Chris

I know Lowes says on there website you can get 2inch copper pipe from them but it says for this pipe not to exceed 100 degrees while then 1 inch pipe can go to like 350 degree F. If I can't get 2 inch can I then at least get a 2 inch to 1 inch reducer?? I ask because if I buy the keg clamp and all t...
