My lil Pot Rig for some Gin makin

Post by bentstick »

This is a lil pot I have been workin on for a bit,once close to done it was no,fix leaks,and then test,nope fix leaks! should of went lock joint instead of lap joint, DUH cleaning runs done, and a good scrub on the outside. It is small 6 lts but it only has one purpose in life and that is to make Gin Stubbydrainer style!
